With the previous patch, we could still get stuck behind a low-prio
request. Generalize it into separate queues, and allow more than one
request in parallel.
Worth noting that the test time for `VALGRIND=0 pytest -vx tests/ -n 10`
doesn't change measurably.

fiatjaf has a cheap VPS, connecting remotely to his home bitcoind node.
fiatjaf's latency on bitcoin-cli getblock is between 10 and 37 seconds.
fiatjaf's c-lightning node is getting one block per hour.
fiatjaf is sad.
We single-file our bitcoind requests, because bitcoind has a limited
thread pool and it *fails* rather than queueing if you upset it. We
probably be fine using separate queues for each command type, but simply
allowing some requests to cut in line should prove my theory that we're
getting stuck behind gossip verification requests.
fiatjaf now gets one block per 2 minutes.
fiatjaf is less sad.

Everything depends on common headers etc, and the HSM_CLIENT_HEADERS was removed
quite a while ago.

We would never complete further ping commands if we had < responses

We want to try it before --daemon, in case we error, but we don't know
the pid yet, so we split into 'lock' and 'write'.

If we run two daemons on the same directory we'd be getting the failure from
trying to listen to the same file before we'd hit the pid-file error, which was
causing confusion.
The first argument of 'ping' was documented as 'peerid', however
internally it is expected to be just 'id'.
To avoid breaking the API, opt to fix the documentation.
This was found because it means we have a non-zero feerate without
filling in the history of that feerate:

Documentation changes:
1. Lots of extra detail suggested by @renepickhardt.
2. typo fixes from @practicalswift.
3. A section on 'const' usage.

Code changes:
1. Expose daemon_poll() so lightningd can call it directly, which avoids us
having store a global and document it.
2. Remove the (undocumented, unused, forgotten) --rpc-file="" option to disable
JSON RPC.
3. Move the ickiness of finding the executable path into subd.c, so it doesn't
distract from lightningd.c overview.

This could have been a local static but its used by the run-param test,
so putting it in json.c made things easier.

Note: Unlike before, this will now accept positional parameters.
Note: In case of error we no longer report the hop number. Is this acceptable?
We still report the name of the bad param and its value.
One option is to log the hop number if param() returns false. This would require
a change to command_fail so it doesn't delete the cmd, so we can still
access cmd->ld->log.

The `json_tok_X` functions now consistently check the success case first

It's probably unnecessary to have this weird way of injecting results
now we have explicit feerate args.

We could refine this later (based on existing wallet, for example), but
this gives some estimate.
