Stop Sending ChannelUpdates in onion failures
These are optional now, and while other nodes might use them, they shouldn't do so for long (though lnd has said they'll keep using them, but only for fast-retires when they have stale feerate info, which I'm skeptical is common enough for us to care). Removing them would likely reduce a bunch of code.
Adding the PR link https://github.com/lightning/bolts/pull/1173 just to make the problem clear. I was looking the code today but I was not able to remember where this change was made.
