Dumb programs which have a --daemon option call fork() early. This is
terrible UX since startup errors get lost: the program exits with
"success" immediately then you discover via the logs that it didn't
start at all.
However, forking late introduced a heap of problems with changing
pids. Instead, fork early but keep stderr and the parent around: if
we fail early on, the parent fails with us. We release our parent
with an explicit action just before the main loop.

I noticed that --network=regtest didn't override 'network=bitcoin' in
the config file.
Normally we parse the config file first, then the commandline (so the cmdline
wins). But for early options, we do cmdline first so we can find the config
file. That was fine when the only early option was the location of the
config file, but now it includes plugins and the network setting.
So do a boutique cmdline parse *just* to find the config file, then parse
the config file early options, then the cmdline early options.

The spec says to close the channel if they send us an error, but we
need to be more lenient to preserve channels with other
implementations.

- Related Changes for `warning` notification
Add a `bool` type parameter in `log_()` and `lov()`, this `bool` flag
indicates if we should call `warning` notifier.
1) The process of copying `log_book` of every peer to the `log_book` of
`ld` is usually included in `log_()` and `lov()`, and it may lead to
repeated `warning` notification. So a `bool`, which explicitly indicates
if the `warning` notification is disabled during this call, is necessary
.
2) The `LOG_INFO` and `LOG_DEBUG` level don't need to call
warning, so set that `bool` paramater as `FALSE` for these log level and
only set it as `TRUE` for `LOG_UNUAUSL`/`LOG_BROKEN`. As for `LOG_IO`,
it use `log_io()` to log, so we needn't think about notifier for it.
We reserve inputs when we're going to send a transaction, but we don't
unreserve them if we crash. This is most graphically demonstrated by
the txprepare case, which makes it easier to trigger.
Instead, we should query bitcoind to see whether the tx made it out or
not, as we would do manually with dev-rescan-outputs.

Encapsulating the peer state was a win for lightningd; not surprisingly,
it's even more of a win for the other daemons, especially as we want
to add a little gossip information.

These are always handed to subdaemons as a set, so group them. This makes
it easier to add an fd (in the next patch).

They're generally used pass-by-copy (unusual for C structs, but
convenient they're basically u64) and all possibly problematic
operations return WARN_UNUSED_RESULT bool to make you handle the
over/underflow cases.
The new #include in json.h means we bolt11.c sees the amount.h definition

Next patch will call commands to get usage inside jsonrpc_new(): to do
this it will need access to ld->jsonrpc, so we can't use the current
pattern.

json_escaped.[ch], param.[ch] and jsonrpc_errors.h move from lightningd/
to common/. Tests moved too.
We add a new 'common/json_tok.[ch]' for the common parameter parsing
routines which a plugin might want, taking them out of
lightningd/json.c (which now only contains the lightningd-specific
ones).
The rest is mainly fixing up includes.

This currently just invokes GDB, but we could generalize it (though
pdb doesn't allow attaching to a running process, other python
debuggers seem to).

This tells the plugin both the `lightning-dir` as well as the
`rpc-filename` to use to talk to `lightningd`. Prior to this they'd
had to guess.

This is needed in order to be able to add methods while initializing
the plugins, but before actually moving to the config dir and starting

This is the final step to get the plugins working. After parsing the
early options (including `--plugin`), then starting and asking the
plugins for options, and finally reading in the options we just
registered, we just need to assemble the options and send them over.

Also includes some sanity checks for the results returned by the
plugin, such as ensuring that the ID is as expected and that we have
either an error or a real result.
The idea is that `plugin` is an early arg that is parsed (from command
line or the config file). We can then start the plugins and have them
tell us about the options they'd like to add to the mix, before we
actually parse them.

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.
