Add a new startup option which will, if set, prompt the user for a
password to derive a key from. This key will later be used to encrypt
and/or decrypt `hsm_secret`.
This was made a noarg option even if it would have been preferable to
let the user the choice of how to specify the password. Since we have
to chose, better to not let the password in the commands history.
Will be demuxed into starting the selected DB backend in one of the next
commits. Defaults to the old database location.

This avoids having to correlate with listpeers for the most pertinent
information.
This API predates plugins, otherwise we'd have listutxos and listpeers
and this would simply combine them appropriately. Still, it exists so
there's little reason not to make it more friendly.

Allow a user to select the utxo set that will be added to a
transaction, via the `utxos` parameter. Optional.
Format for utxos should be of the form ["txid:vout","..."]
mrkd started enforcing the `name -- short description` style of top-level
headings somewhere, and was thus failing to build the man-pages. 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.
In addition I removed the "last updated" lines at the bottom since they are
out of date at best, and misleading at the worst. If we want to keep them, I'd
suggest generating them from the commit that last touched them.
By not depending on plugins, we can call lightningd before plugins are
built, and not get all options:

1. These days we delete the [Unreleased] tag during rcs.
2. Make sure we test the release build process during rc1, since I
screwed that up last release.
3. Add a section on rc2, etc.
4. Do final release via a github PR, since I screwed that up on the
prior release.
5. Update `tools/build-release.sh` and instructions to show that we now
make a reproducible build for Ubuntu 18.04 x86-64.

This is probably worth preventing.
1. Our depth estimate would be inaccurate possibly leading to us
timing out too early.
2. If we're not up-to-date our onchain funds are unknown.
3. We wouldn't be able to send or receive HTLCs until we're synced anyway.

We haven't touched the readme for quite some time, just randomly added to it,
and it's starting to show. This is my attempt at cleaning it up a bit (more to
come):
- No longer discourage users from running on mainnet, we're way beyond that
point.
- No longer instruct users to build from source, when we have real binary
releases, on the PPA, the releases page and the docker images.
- Cut down on the docker specific instructions, they are taking a lot of room
when only a minority will likely run them that way
- Generally make the README more of a dispatch for more in-depth
documentation rather than trying to address everything right on the
front-page.
- Add a bit of context about running on top of a pruned node

`close` takes two optional arguments: `force` and `timeout`.
`timeout` doesn't timeout the close (there's no way to do that), just
the JSON call. `force` (default `false`) if set, means we unilaterally
close at the timeout, instead of just failing.
Timing out JSON calls is generally deprecated: that's the job of the
client. And the semantics of this are confusing, even to me! A
better API is a timeout which, if non-zero, is the time at which we
give up and unilaterally close.
The transition code is awkward, but we'll manage for the three
releases until we can remove it.
The new defaults are to unilaterally close after 48 hours.
Fixes: #2791
