Christian Decker 62dc078271 cln-grpc: Generate server dispatcher
The server doesn't do much more than unwrapping the request from its
grpc envelope, convert it into the matching JSON-RPC binding struct,
initiate the RPC connection (until we have connection pooling), and
then forwards the converted request. The inverse then happens for the
result.

MsgGen - Generating language bindings and docs from schemas and wire descriptions

MsgGen is a collection of tools that are used to parse schemas and (eventually) protocol wire CSVs into an intermediate representation in memory, and then generate language specific bindings and documentation from it.

The dependency graph looks like this:

digraph {
  "JSON-RPC Schemas" -> "msggen model";
  "msggen model" -> "grpc proto file";
  "msggen model" -> "Rust From<JsonRpc> Converters";
  "grpc proto file" -> "Rust grpc bindings"
  "Rust grpc bindings" -> "cln-grpc";
  "Rust From<JsonRpc> Converters" -> "cln-grpc";
  "msggen model" -> "Rust JSON-RPC structs";
  "Rust JSON-RPC structs" -> "cln-rpc";
}
