Set UpdateAddHTLC::hold_htlc for offline payees

As part of supporting sending payments as an often-offline sender, the sender
needs to be able to set a flag in their update_add_htlc message indicating that
the HTLC should be held until receipt of a release_held_htlc onion message from
the often-offline payment recipient.

The prior commits laid groundwork to finally set the flag here in this commit.
