This field was used by `pay` to hold the bolt11 description if the bolt11
string used `h` to hash the description (which nobody ever did). If the
`h` field wasn't present, it could contain anything, as it wasn't checked.
It's really useful to have a label for payments (eg. '1 Cuban'), but adding
yet-another option would be painful, so we simply rename 'description'
to 'label' except inside the db.
This means we need to do some tricky parameter parsing to handle array
and keyword JSON arguments, but only until we remove the old name.

Without this, there's no proof of payment, since it is the signed invoice
that make the receipt valid.

I tried to fundchannel 0.01btc, and of course it wanted 8 decimals exactly.
If I can't get this right, it's probably a bad idea.
I still don't allow whole number of btc though, since that's probably a mistake
and you're not supposed to put that much in c-lightning yet :)

The parameter is 'payment_hash' not 'hash', and the 'description' parameter
wasn't documented at all.
