Add ability to broadcast our own node_announcement.

This is a somewhat-obvious oversight in the capabilities of
rust-lightning, though not a particularly interesting one until we
start relying on node_features (eg for variable-length-onions and
Base AMP).

Sadly its not fully automated as we don't really want to store the
list of available addresses from the user. However, with a simple
call to ChannelManager::broadcast_node_announcement and a sensible
peer_handler, the announcement is made.
