This is unlikely to occur very often in practice, because s->stream
usually gets stuffed into s->rpc before long, but it is still a good idea
to fix it.
Some upcoming code wants to serialize JSON into a "struct ds" dynamic
string buffer, so expose an interface to do this.
This commit doesn't change much, but it renames some functions internal
to json.c to make the naming more consistent.
Also, make jsonrpc_log_msg() use this new function, since it is a more
straightforward way to do what it wants.
jsonrpc_session_connect() indirectly called reconnect_disconnected(), which
told the reconnect object that the connection had failed, before it told it
that the connection attempt had started. When the connection didn't
complete immediately, this caused the connection to time out immediately,
without any backoff.

SSL, which will be added in an upcoming commit, requires some background
processing, which is best done in a "run" function in our architecture.
This commit adds stream_run() and stream_run_wait() and calls to them from
the places where they will be required.
