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.

// greedyAddSweep selects a batch for the sweep using the greedy algorithm,
// which minimizes costs, and adds the sweep to the batch. To accomplish this,
// it first collects fee details about the sweep being added, about a potential
// new batch composed of this sweep only, and about all existing batches. Then
// it passes the data to selectBatch() function, which emulates adding the sweep
// to each batch and creating new batch for the sweep, and calculates the costs
// of each alternative. Based on the estimates of selectBatch(), this method
// adds the sweep to a batch, or creates new batch for it. If this method fails
// for whatever reason, the caller falls back to the simple algorithm (method
