Christian Decker c3254e6639 docs: Update manpages to be recognized correctly by mrkd
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out of date at best, and misleading at the worst.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.

Rusty Russell 83e654a106 close: change to a unilateraltimeout argument.
`close` takes two optional arguments: `force` and `timeout`.
`timeout` doesn't timeout the close (there's no way to do that), just
the JSON call.  `force` (default `false`) if set, means we unilaterally
close at the timeout, instead of just failing.

Timing out JSON calls is generally deprecated: that's the job of the
client.  And the semantics of this are confusing, even to me!  A
better API is a timeout which, if non-zero, is the time at which we
give up and unilaterally close.

The transition code is awkward, but we'll manage for the three
releases until we can remove it.

The new defaults are to unilaterally close after 48 hours.

ZmnSCPxj 2cee1ab20f peer_control: Make close wait for complete closure, with timeout.
Also report tx and txid, and whether we closed unilaterally or
bilaterally, if we could close the channel.

Also make a manpage.
