niftynei ba7d4a8f6b make-schema: don't include tools/fromschema.py in SHASUMS
We were including the entire list of prerequisites when generating a
shastamp, which for schemas includes the `tools/fromschema.py` doc.

This meant all of our shasums were updating anytime this tool file
changed.

Instead, we just include the first prerequisite.

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

On success, an object is returned, containing:

  • blockheight (u32): The current block height (>= blockheight parameter)

If timeout seconds is reached without the specified blockheight being reached, this command will fail with a code of 2000.
