Disable absurd fee checks when adding to the mempool

To protect users who are not using opreturn we prevent any use of z_sendmany
with absurd fees if opreturn is not being used, so this change only affects
users who are adding opreturn data. Since there is no way to currently send
opreturn data via a GUI this still protects all GUI users from absurd fees
while allowing CLI users to decide to use higher fees.
