f81cc9f552 plugins/bcli: wait for bitcoind to be warmed up at init
This is also taken and adapted from lightningd/bitcoind.

The call to 'getblockchaininfo' is replaced by 'echo' as we don't
make use of the result and the former can sometimes be slow (e.g. on
IBD).

70a79e3998 plugins/bcli: a new plugin for gathering Bitcoin data
Most is taken from lightningd/bitcoind and adapted. This currently
exposes 5 commands:
- `getchaininfo`, currently called at startup to check the network and
  whether we are on IBD.
- `getrawblockbyheight`, which basically does the `getblockhash` +
  `getblock` trick.
- `getfeerate`
- `sendrawtransaction`
- `getutxout`, used to gather infos about an output and currently used by
  `getfilteredblock` in `lightningd/bitcoind`.
