We only handle top-level objects with an array of objects:

lightning-signmessage -- Command to create a signature from this node
=====================================================================
SYNOPSIS
--------
**signmessage** *message*
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The **signmessage** RPC command creates a digital signature of
*message* using this node's secret key. A receiver who knows your
node's *id* and the *message* can be sure that the resulting signature could
only be created by something with access to this node's secret key.
*message* must be less that 65536 characters.
RETURN VALUE
------------

On success, an object is returned, containing:
- **signature** (hex): The signature (always 128 characters)
- **recid** (hex): The recovery id (0, 1, 2 or 3) (always 2 characters)
- **zbase** (string): *signature* and *recid* encoded in a style compatible with **lnd**'s [SignMessageRequest](https://api.lightning.community/#grpc-request-signmessagerequest)
