I swapped the title and with the existing short description to make it work again. `mrkd` will automatically infer the section from the filename so no need to put it in the title as well.

doc/manpages: regenerate manpages using markdown templates

.SH SYNOPSIS
funding: enable push_msat it's that time of year (merry xmas!) enables the ability to push_msat on fundchannel Changelog-Added: RPC: `fundchannel` and `fundchannel_start` can now accept an optional parameter, `push_msat`, which will gift that amount of satoshis to the peer at channel open.

.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBfundchannel_start\fR is a lower level RPC command\. It allows a user to
initiate channel establishment with a connected peer\.
\fIid\fR is the node id of the remote peer\.

\fIamount\fR is the satoshi value that the channel will be funded at\. This

will not encompass the correct channel value\.
\fIfeerate\fR is an optional field\. Sets the feerate for subsequent
doc: feerate is not obvious, refer to fundchannel documentation: It has a whole *two paragraphs* on it: *feerate* is an optional feerate used for the opening transaction and as initial feerate for commitment and HTLC transactions. It can be one of the strings *urgent* (aim for next block), *normal* (next 4 blocks or so) or *slow* (next 100 blocks or so) to use lightningd’s internal estimates: *normal* is the default. Otherwise, *feerate* is a number, with an optional suffix: *perkw* means the number is interpreted as satoshi-per-kilosipa (weight), and *perkb* means it is interpreted bitcoind-style as satoshi-per-kilobyte. Omitting the suffix is equivalent to *perkb*. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

funding: add RPC arg to specify a 'close_to' address Takes advantage of upfront-shutdown-script to permit users to specify the close-to address for a channel at open, by adding a `close_to` field to `fundchannel_start`. Note that this only is in effect if `fundchannel_start` returns with `close_to` set -- otherwise, peer doesn't support `option_upfront_shutdown_script`.

\fIclose_to\fR is a Bitcoin address to which the channel funds should be sent to
on close\. Only valid if both peers have negotiated \fBoption_upfront_shutdown_script\fR\.
Returns \fBclose_to\fR set to closing script iff is negotiated\.

\fIpush_msat\fR is the amount of millisatoshis to push to the channel peer at
open\. Note that this is a gift to the peer -- these satoshis are
added to the initial balance of the peer at channel start and are largely
unrecoverable once pushed\.

On success, returns the \fIfunding_address\fR and the \fIscriptpubkey\fR for the channel funding output\.

If a \fBclose_to\fR address was provided, will close to this address iff the \fBclose_to\fR address is
returned in the response\. Otherwise, the peer does not support \fBoption_upfront_shutdownscript\fR\.
