Describe the issue

The lightning spec test vectors include varying transaction fee values, including edge cases like 0. But this is untestable on bitcoin-core.

Can you reliably reproduce the issue?

If so, please list the steps to reproduce below:
1. Add minrelaytxfee=0 to bitcoin.conf
2. Run bitcoind.
Expected behaviour

No more failing priority for my zero-fee transaction.

Actual behaviour

Error: Invalid amount for -minrelaytxfee=<amount>: '0'

What version of bitcoin-core are you using?

Bitcoin Core Daemon version v0.13.99.0-9346f84

Machine specs:
- OS: Linux
- CPU: Yes
- RAM: Yes
