policy: add a function to get the virtual transaction size 

It's very useful to Bitcoin applications, and especially "L2" ones, to
effectively compute feerates. Currently (and this is very unlikely to
change) bitcoind nodes compute the virtual size as a rounded-up division
of the size in witness units by 4, with a penalty for transactions that
are essentially >5% full of sigops.
