Add support for channel upgradeability
IBC will be adding a channel upgrade feature that will execute in a separate handshake process, after a channel has been created initially, that the relayer must be able to handle. This will allow a channel to be upgraded for supporting new IBC features without completely abandoning the channel and creating a new one.
