sweepbatcher: add greedy batch selection algorithm
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
If custom fee rates are used, the algorithm is tried. It selects a batch for the
sweep using the greedy algorithm, which minimizes costs, and adds the sweep to
the batch. If it fails, old algorithm is used, trying to add to any batch, or
starting a new batch.
