[bisq-network/bisq] Improve fee estimation (#1077)

[Manfred Karrer]

I just had a conversation with Felix Weiss and he told me he does not have time to help us. The API is still not public but we can use that url: https://whatthefee.io/data.json

curl https://whatthefee.io/data.json
{"index": [3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144], "columns": ["0.0500", "0.2000", "0.5000", "0.8000", "0.9500"], "data": [[260, 260, 280, 300, 340], [220, 240, 260, 280, 320], [180, 240, 260, 260, 300], [140, 200, 240, 260, 280], [20, 140, 220, 260, 260], [0, 100, 200, 240, 260], [0, 0, 140, 200, 240], [0, 0, 40, 180, 240], [0, 0, 0, 120, 200], [0, 0, 0, 20, 180], [0, 0, 0, 0, 40]]}

He will update us if the format changes.
I think we could start to build on that and use the 90-95% range. 
We shoud have some fallback / cross check so probably good to keep the earn.com data as well and 
make some sanity checks (e.g. diff. must not be larger the x).

Any dev want to work on that? It is not lot of work, just a request, parsing the json and making that sanity check.

I suggest a bounty of 1000 BSQ for that.
