peer: update chooseDeliveryScript to gen script if needed

In this commit, we update `chooseDeliveryScript` to generate a new
script if needed. This allows us to fold in a few other lines that
always followed this function into this expanded function.

The tests have been updated accordingly.

//
// Goals:
// * We want to incentivize good routing nodes: the more routable channels a
// node has, the more we want to incentivize (vice versa for failures).
// -> We reduce/increase the direct probability depending on past
// failures/successes for other channels of the node.
//
// * We want to be forgiving/give other nodes a chance as well: we want to
// forget about (non-)routable channels over time.
// -> We weight the successes/failures with a time decay such that they will not
// influence the total probability if a long time went by.
//
// * If we don't have other info, we want to solely rely on the direct
// probability.
//
// * We want to be able to specify how important the other channels are compared
// to the direct channel.
// -> Introduce a node weight factor that weights the direct probability against
// the node-wide average. The larger the node weight, the more important other
// channels of the node are.
//
// How do failures on low fee nodes redirect routing to higher fee nodes?
// Assumptions:
// * attemptCostPPM of 1000 PPM
// * constant direct channel probability of P0 (usually 0.5 for large amounts)
// * node weight w of 0.2
//
// The question we want to answer is:
// How often would a zero-fee node be tried (even if there were failures for its
// other channels) over trying a high-fee node with 2000 PPM and no direct
// knowledge about the channel to send over?
//
// The probability of a route of length l is P(l) = l * P0.
//
// The total probability after n failures (with the implemented method here) is:
// P(l, n) = P(l-1) * P(n)
// = P(l-1) * (P0 + n*0) / (1 + n*w)
// = P(l) / (1 + n*w)
//
// Condition for a high-fee channel to overcome a low fee channel in the
// Dijkstra weight function (only looking at fee and probability PPM terms):
// highFeePPM + attemptCostPPM * 1/P(l) = 0PPM + attemptCostPPM * 1/P(l, n)
// highFeePPM/attemptCostPPM = 1/P(l, n) - 1/P(l) =
// = (1 + n*w)/P(l) - 1/P(l) =
// = n*w/P(l)
//
// Therefore:
// n = (highFeePPM/attemptCostPPM) * (P(l)/w) =
// = (2000/1000) * 0.5 * l / w = l/w
//
// For a one-hop route we get:
// n = 1/0.2 = 5 tolerated failures
//
// For a three-hop route we get:
// n = 3/0.2 = 15 tolerated failures
//
