[mempool] Allow one extra single-ancestor transaction per package

This implements the proposed policy change from [1], which allows
certain classes of contract protocols involving revocation
punishments to use CPFP. Note that some such use-cases may still
want some form of one-deep package relay, though even this alone
may greatly simplify some lightning fee negotiation.
