This not really all things since I wanted to also move signmessage and checkmessage to the plugin, but then if the hsm_secret is encrypted the user would need to also pass its encryption password. What do you think ? (They can also be added later)

So this comports only two calls ATM : decrypthsm and encrypthsm. This also moves the encryption doc in the README to the "Further information" part.

After talking with @cdecker and @ZmnSCPxj it seems that having another process which deals with hsm_secret is not a good design. I'm now making this a tool and will try to integrate a generalization of @Sjors 's commitment dumper.

Hmm I wonder if it makes sense to include it in lightningd/plugins instead ?
