fuzz: derive routes from payment paths

Build direct, forwarded, and MPP routes from a shared per-path hop
description. Derive route fees and node metadata from that description,
and increase the CLTV delta by 100 for each successive hop.

Later failure tracking needs to describe the exact route that was sent.
Keeping route construction and bookkeeping on one representation
prevents them from drifting and prepares the tracker to retain more
per-hop failure context.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a refactoring of internal fuzz-test code only. It changes how fake Lightning payment routes are built in a test harness so that route construction uses a single shared helper instead of hand-written route structures. There is no change to production code, no user-facing behavior change, and no security fix or vulnerability.

Recommended action

No action required. This is a test-only refactoring with no security relevance.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
