tools: Add `generatehsm` method to hsmtool to derivate BIP32 seeds from a
mnemonic using the BIP39 standard.
The new method uses libwally for the BIP39 to BIP32 derivation. It also
fails if an hsm_secret file already exists, so we do not overwrite
someone else's wallet without noticing.
It allows the use of passphrases, the ECHO mode in the terminal is
disable for higher security.
It currently supports "en", "es", "fr", "it", "jp", "zhs", "zht".
Changelog-Added: hsmtool: `hsm_secret` generation from a seed-phrase following BIP39.
The idea is that you regenerate the man pages in the same commit you
alter them: that's how we know whether to try regenerating them or not
(git doesn't store timestamps, so it can't really tell).
Travis will now check this, so force them all to sync to this commit.

Changelog-Added: We now install `lightning-hsmtool` for your `hsm_secret` needs.
See: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/issues/3717#issuecomment-644844594
It seems reasonable to add this to the standard install, and to document it properly as well, hopefully we can fill in the documentation better later on.
