Moving fee retrieval into the electrum handshake means that if the server returns an error it will be caught by our coroutine exception handler and will not crash the application (as in the case now), I included a test for that. |

When we connect to an electrum sever we perform a "handshake" that includes exchanging protocol version messages and retrieving the server's current tip, and now we also retrieve onchain fees. We also add an extra, optional CoroutineExceptionHandler to ElectrumClient's constructor, which can be used for testing or to specify a different behaviour to the one that is currently hard-coded. Since this is done during the connection handshake, errors will be caught by the corouting exception handler that we use in the client and will not crash the application.

Isn't this obsolete after #649 where we let our peer advertise the feerates they accept through the |

I don't think so since we still ask the electrum server we're connected to for fee estimates and it may return an error ? The point here was do we add this to the handshake we perform when we connect to the server or do we try a different fix. |
