This doesn't make a performance difference, but even better, it
simplifies the code.
We hacked test_multirpc to send 200x as many commands, and timed the
pytest over 20 runs:
Before:
=================== 1 passed, 136 deselected in 8.550000-9.400000(9.0045+/-0.2) seconds ===================
After:
=================== 1 passed, 136 deselected in 8.540000-9.370000(8.97286+/-0.16) seconds ===================

We need to keep the remaining buffer, and we need to try to parse it
before we read the next. I first tried keeping it in the object, but
its lifetime is that of the *socket*, which we actually reopen for
every command.

We also make `--help` a non-early arg so it allows for the plugins to
register their options before printing the help message. The options
themselves are stored in a separate struct inbetween them being
registered and them being forwarded to the plugin. Currently only
supports string options.

And there's a difference between no description and "" as a description:
for no description, listpayments doesn't show the field at all. So fix
that.

While not strictly necessary it's certainly a good idea to test
against the latest one and not encourage users to use old versions.

And, reluctantly, default to bitcoind style.

No semantical change but when using the python lib for the rpc-api it is confusing that my developing environment suggests that I should fund a channel and pass a channel_id when in fact I want to pass a node_id
This is useful mainly in the case where bitcoind is not giving estimates,
but can also be used to bias results if you want.

Manipulate fees via fake-bitcoin-cli. It's not quite the same, as
these are pre-smoothing, so we need a restart to override that where
we really need an exact change. Or we can wait until it reaches a
certain value in cases we don't care about exact amounts.

They're much more useful being programatically-accessible, AFAICT.
The string stays the same so they're backwards compatible.

`getinfo` has been providing the blockheight for a good while and doesn't
require the `DEVELOPER=1` flag during compilation, so it should be the preferred
method to retrieve the blockchain height.
Strictly speaking not needed for the build and test, but if we want to use the
image also for packaging this is required.

Also report tx and txid, and whether we closed unilaterally or
bilaterally, if we could close the channel.
Also make a manpage.

We can have more than one; eg we might offer both bech32 and a p2sh
address, and in future we might offer v1 segwit, etc.
