Close and remove unfunded inbound/outbound channels that are older th…

…an an hour

We introduce a `UnfundedChannelContext` which contains a counter for the
current age of an unfunded channel in timer ticks. This age is incremented
for every `ChannelManager::timer_tick_ocurred` and the unfunded channel
is removed if it exceeds `UNFUNDED_CHANNEL_AGE_LIMIT_TICKS`.

The value will not be persisted as unfunded channels themselves are not
persisted.
