Async + Fallible Signing
#1538 attempted to make our signing fallible (eg "usb signer is disconnected"). Since we redid the monitor/commitment-signing pipelines this should be much more practical now. However, when we do this we should also consider having the pipelines all be optionally-async. This would allow for proper remote signing without everything being blocked on RPC calls which is the only way to do it today.
Sadly it looks like this is going to slip to 0.3, with splicing not supporting async signing until then as well.
