struct param;

/*
  Typesafe callback system for unmarshalling and validating json parameters.

  Typical usage:
	unsigned cltv;
	const jsmntok_t *note;
	u64 *msatoshi;

	if (!param_parse(cmd, buffer, tokens,
			 param_req("cltv", json_tok_number, &cltv),
			 param_opt("note", json_tok_tok, &note),
			 param_opt("msatoshi", json_tok_u64, &msatoshi),
			 NULL))
		return;

  At this point in the code you can be assured the json tokens were successfully
  parsed.  If not, param_parse() returns false, having already called
  command_fail() with a descriptive error message. The data section of the json
  result contains the offending parameter and its value.

  cltv is a required parameter, and is set correctly.

  note and msatoshi are optional parameters.  Their argument will be set to NULL
  if they are not provided.

  The note parameter uses a special callback, param_opt_tok: it
  simply sets note to the appropriate value (or NULL) and lets the
  handler do the validating.

  There are canned failure messages for common callbacks. An example:

	'msatoshi' should be an unsigned 64 bit integer, not '123z'

  Otherwise a generic message is provided.
