Nits: needs folding in the fixup and removing "connected" parsing....

Why do you grab "connected" and not use it?
This allows us to directly returnan error code based on where we decided to abort, rather than attemtping to infer it from the parts. Changelog-Added: pay: The pay plugin now returns better error codes
Changelog-Added: pay: The pay plugin now checks whether we have enough spendable capacity before computing a route, returning a clear error message if we don't

We have long had an issue with the "Ran out of routes" error
essentially covering up the real reason a payment has failed. Let's
try and add some better error messages as well as do some additional
checks that can tell us what went wrong in the first place.
