Make on-close channel_update messages more robust #2711

@TheBlueMatt

Description

@TheBlueMatt

When we force-close a channel we send an advisory channel_update to the currently connected peers to let the world know that the channel is now closed (by setting the disable bit). This doesn't do anything if we force-close on startup, because we have no peers. We should retry broadcasting these at some point in the future by caching them a bit. Other nodes currently dont do this (and absolutely should), but for now we should at least make our more reliable.
