json: make json_add_string do partial escapes.
This is useful when we log a JSON-escaped string, so we don't double-escape.

lightning-cli: Be more discerning about literals.
Fixes : #574
The issue states that we should follow the standard when
parsing the port for IPv6 [addr]:port syntax, but this is
actually already supported by the daemon. The issue arises
due to the `lightning-cli` misinterpreting [addr]:port as
an array. This modification makes [addr]:port interpreted
as a string.

lightning-cli: keyword mode.
By default, autodetect, but that's unreliable, so use -k/-o to force
interpretation.

Onboarding: Make "lightning-cli" (without arguments) output the equivalent of "lightning-cli --help; lightning-cli help"
New users invoking lightning-cli are likely interested in what RPC

quickfixing issue #662 to make CLI more userfriendly for inexperienced users ( #663 )
* making the cli more user friendly for inexperienced users #662
providing a quickfix for https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/issues/662
Basically I extended the ./lighting-cli --help message to at least state that one should use ./lighting-cli help, and added a hint to cli/lighting-cli help to the README

Also, we split the more sophisticated json_add helpers to avoid pulling in
everything into lightning-cli, and unify the routines to print struct
short_channel_id (it's ':', not '/' too).
