Here we introduce the access manager which has caches that will
determine the access control status of our peers. Peers that have
had their funding transaction confirm with us are protected. Peers
that only have pending-open channels with us are temporary access
and can have their access revoked. The rest of the peers are granted
restricted access.
It's possible that a user might not want the Tor private key to sit on the disk in plaintext (it is a private key after all). So this commit adds a new flag to encrypt the Tor private key on disk using the wallet's seed. When the --tor.encryptkey flag is used, LND will still write the Tor key to the same file, however it will now be encrypted intead of plaintext. This essentially uses the same method to encrypt the Tor private key as is used to encrypt the Static Channel Backup file.

This commit lets the watchtower automatically create hidden services
by giving it a pointer to a TorController. The server was also slightly
refactored so that it was not the sole owner of the TorController.
