Rusty Russell eb6b8551d4 tools/fromschema.py: don't try to handle more complex cases.

We only handle top-level objects with an array of objects:
make sure it is one before we call the routines.

lightning-help -- Command to return all information about RPC commands.

SYNOPSIS

help [command]

DESCRIPTION

The help is a RPC command which is possible consult all information about the RPC commands, or a specific command if command is given.

Note that the lightning-cli(1) tool will prefer to list a man page when a specific command is specified, and will only return the JSON if the man page is not found.

EXAMPLE JSON REQUEST

{
  "id": 82,
  "method": "help",
  "params": {}
}

RETURN VALUE

On success, an object is returned, containing:

help (array of objects):
- command (string): the command
- category (string): the category for this command (useful for grouping)
- description (string): a one-line description of the purpose of this command
- verbose (string): a full description of this command (including whether it's deprecated)

On failure, one of the following error codes may be returned:

-32602: Error in given parameters.

EXAMPLE JSON RESPONSE

{
    "help": [
      {
        "command": "autocleaninvoice [cycle_seconds] [expired_by]",
        "category": "plugin",
        "description": "Set up autoclean of expired invoices. ",
        "verbose": "Perform cleanup every {cycle_seconds} (default 3600), or disable autoclean if 0. Clean up expired invoices that have expired for {expired_by} seconds (default 86400). "
      }
    ]
}
