Before this patch we used to send `double`s over the wire by just
copying them. This is not portable because the internal represenation
of a `double` is implementation specific.
Instead of this, multiply any floating-point numbers that come from
the outside (e.g. JSONs) by 1 million and round them to integers when
handling them.
* Introduce a new param_millionths() that expects a floating-point
number and returns it multipled by 1000000 as an integer.
* Replace param_double() and param_percent() with param_millionths()
* Previously the riskfactor would be allowed to be negative, which must
have been unintentional. This patch changes that to require a
non-negative number.

Default is legacy. If we have future styles, new strings can be defined,
but for now it's "tlv" or "legacy".

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out of date at best, and misleading at the worst.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.
Up until now, riskfactor was useless due to implementation bugs, and
also the default setting is wrong (too low to have an effect on
reasonable payment scenarios).
Let's simplify the definition (by assuming that P(failure) of a node
is 1), to make it a simple percentage. I examined the current network
fees to see what would work, and under this definition, a default of
10 seems reasonable (equivalent to 1000 under the old definition).
It is *this* change which finally fixes our test case! The riskfactor
is now 40msat (1500000 * 14 * 10 / 5259600 = 39.9), comparable with
worst-case fuzz is 50msat (1001 * 0.05 = 50).

My manpage viewer did not know what to do with curly braces,
so I switched them to quotes and it works fine.

seed isn't very useful at this level: I've left it in routing.c
because it might be useful for detailed testing. Pretty sure it's unused,
so I simply removed it.
The fuzzpercent is documented to default at 5%, but actually was 75%.
Fix that too.
