  1. Sending XCM messages to other chains requires paying a "transport fee".

    This can be paid either:
    - from `origin` local account if `jit_withdraw = true`,
    - taken from Holding register otherwise.
    
    This currently works for following hops/scenarios:
    1. On destination no transport fee needed (only sending costs, not receiving),
    2. Local/originating chain: just set JIT=true and fee will be paid from signed account,
    3. Intermediary hops - only if intermediary is acting as reserve between two untrusted
    chains (aka only for `DepositReserveAsset` instruction) - this was fixed in
    paritytech#3142
    
    But now we're seeing more complex asset transfers that are mixing reserve transfers
    with teleports depending on the involved chains.
    
    E.g. transferring DOT between Relay and parachain, but through AH (using AH instead
    of the Relay chain as parachain's DOT reserve).
    
    In the `Parachain --1--> AssetHub --2--> Relay` scenario, DOT has to be reserve-withdrawn
    in leg `1`, then teleported in leg `2`.
    On the intermediary hop (AssetHub), `InitiateTeleport` fails to send onward message because
    of missing transport fees. We also can't rely on `jit_withdraw` because the original origin
    is lost on the way, and even if it weren't we can't rely on the user having funded accounts
    on each hop along the way.
    
    - Charge the transport fee in the executor from the transferred assets (if available),
    - Only charge from transferred assets if JIT_WITHDRAW was not set,
    - Only charge from transferred assets if Holding doesn't already contain enough (other)
    assets to pay for the transport fee.
    
    Added regression tests in emulated transfers.
    
    Fixes paritytech#4832
