Changelog-Fixed: plugin: `bcli` no longer logs a harmless warning about being unable to connect to the JSON-RPC interface.
Changelog-Added: plugin: Plugins can opt out of having an RPC connection automatically initialized on startup.
We don't take the callback result into account, so it can better be void.
Having a general callback parameter is handy, because for bcli we want
to pass it the struct bcli.
This adds helpers to start and send a jsonrpc request using json_stream
in order to benefit from the helpers.
This then simplifies existing plugins RPC requests by using json_stream
helpers.
Before this patch we used `int` for error codes. The problem with
`int` is that we try to pass it to/from wire and the size of `int` is
not defined by the standard. So a sender with 4-byte `int` would write
4 bytes to the wire and a receiver with 2-byte `int` (for example) would
read just 2 bytes from the wire.
To resolve this:
* Introduce an error code type with a known size:
`typedef s32 errcode_t`.
* Change all error code macros to constants of type `errcode_t`.
Constants also play better with gdb - it would visualize the name of
the constant instead of the numeric value.
* Change all functions that take error codes to take the new type
`errcode_t` instead of `int`.
* Introduce towire / fromwire functions to send / receive the newly added
type `errcode_t` and use it instead of `towire_int()`.
In addition:
* Remove the now unneeded `towire_int()`.
* Replace a hardcoded error code `-2` with a new constant
`INVOICE_EXPIRED_DURING_WAIT` (903).
Changelog-Changed: The waitinvoice command would now return error code 903 to designate that the invoice expired during wait, instead of the previous -2
I was wondering why TAGS was missing some functions, and finally
tracked it down: PRINTF_FMT() confuses etags if it's at the start
of a function, and it ignores the rest of the file.
So we put PRINTF_FMT at the end, but that doesn't work for
*definitions*, only *declarations*. So we remove it from definitions
and add gratuitous declarations in the few static places.1

We now hand around struct json_out members, rather than using formatted
strings, so plugins need to construct them properly.
There's no automatic conversion between ' and " any more, so those
are eliminated too. pay still uses some manual construction of elements.

1. Allow timers to be freed in their callback.
2. Clarify in header that we have to terminate our timer with timer_finished()
eventually.
3. We don't currently have plugins with more than one outstanding timer, but
it certainly would be possible, so fix in_timer to be a counter.
