This is needed to fully implement handling of blockheight disagreements between us and payee. If payee believes the blockheight is higher than ours, then `pay` should wait for our node to achieve that blockheight. Changelog-Add: Implement `waitblockheight` to wait for a specific blockheight.

lightning-waitblockheight -- Command for waiting for blocks on the blockchain
|
|
=============================================================================
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
**waitblockheight** *blockheight* \[*timeout*\]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
The **waitblockheight** RPC command waits until the blockchain
|
|
has reached the specified *blockheight*.
|
|
It will only wait up to *timeout* seconds (default 60).
|
|
|
|
If the *blockheight* is a present or past block height, then this
|
|
command returns immediately.
|
|
|
|
RETURN VALUE
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Once the specified block height has been achieved by the blockchain,
|
|
an object with the single field *blockheight* is returned, which is
|
|
the block height at the time the command returns.
|
|
|
|
If *timeout* seconds is reached without the specified blockheight
|
|
being reached, this command will fail.
