Description
### Issue and Steps to Reproduce
This is a phenomenon we have observed a couple of times in Greenlight:
1. We initiate a payment
2. The payment has some HTLC that times out (likely due to the signer
not being present, but getting stuck downstream is also a common
cause)
3. The channel then closes because it hits the HTLC deadline
4. The HTLC outputs get resolved / swept correctly, but the HTLC
still shows up as pending, and will never be resolved.
The HTLC should instead be marked as either `complete` or `timeout`
when `onchaind` reports the HTLC output being swept to `lightningd`
and `lightningd` ought to store this in the DB as well.
### `getinfo` output
```javascript
{
"id": "03442386091363708e6e3bcda4dd978d7777743fde7a4990166cdec2e5065149f1",

"invoice": "02000002024100",
"channel": ""
},
"blockheight": 870397,
"network": "bitcoin",
"fees_collected_msat": {
"msat": 0
},
"warning_lightningd_sync": "Still loading latest blocks from bitcoind."
}
```
Ignore the sync warning, it is a peculiarity of how we set up
Greenlight's bitcoin backends.
