* Fix dev_setfees to set slow and normal fees correctly.

Due to a bug def_setfees(100, slow=100) would instead set immediate and
normal fees to 100. This behavior has been updated to set fees to
correct values, make the values truly optional as per documentation and
unit test this behavior.

* Fix pay() to set msatoshi, description and risk factor properly

Due to a bug pay(invoice, description='1000') resulted in payment of
1000 msatoshi instead. This was fixed and covered with tests.

* Fix named args in listpayments, listpeers and connect

* Do not pass None to methods where it is default value

* Make description on invoice and pay match.

l1 = LightningRpc("/tmp/lightning1/lightning-rpc")
l5 = LightningRpc("/tmp/lightning5/lightning-rpc")

info5 = l5.getinfo()
print(info5)

# Create invoice for test payment
invoice = l5.invoice(100, "lbl{}".format(random.random()), "testpayment")
print(invoice)

# Get route to l1
route = l1.getroute(info5['id'], 100, 1)
print(route)

# Pay invoice
print(l1.sendpay(route['route'], invoice['payment_hash']))
