The main change here is to use encoding/json to encode and decode RPC 
parameters, rather than the custom tmjson package. This includes:

- Update the HTTP POST handler parameter handling.
- Add field tags to 64-bit integer types to get string encoding (to match amino/tmjson).
- Add marshalers to struct types that mention interfaces.
- Inject wrappers to decode interface arguments in RPC handlers.

Instead of taking a comma-separated string of parameter names, take each
parameter name as a separate argument. Now that we no longer have an extra flag
for caching, this fits nicely into a variadic trailer.

* Update all usage of NewRPCFunc and NewWSRPCFunc.

We should not set cache-control headers on RPC responses. HTTP caching
interacts poorly with resources that are expected to change frequently, or
whose rate of change is unpredictable.

More subtly, all calls to the POST endpoint use the same URL, which means a
cacheable response from one call may actually "hide" an uncacheable response
from a subsequent one. This is less of a problem for the GET endpoints, but
that means the behaviour of RPCs varies depending on which HTTP method your
client happens to use. Websocket requests were already marked statically
uncacheable, adding yet a third combination.

To address this:

- Stop setting cache-control headers.
- Update the tests that were checking for those headers.
- Remove the flags to request cache-control.

Apart from affecting the HTTP response headers, this change does not modify the
behaviour of any of the RPC methods.

* Rename rpctypes.Context to CallInfo.

Add methods to attach and recover this value from a context.Context.

* Rework RPC method handlers to accept "real" contexts.

- Replace *rpctypes.Context arguments with context.Context.
- Update usage of RPC context fields to use CallInfo.

The code in the Tendermint repository makes heavy use of import aliasing.
This is made necessary by our extensive reuse of common base package names, and
by repetition of similar names across different subdirectories.

Unfortunately we have not been very consistent about which packages we alias in
various circumstances, and the aliases we use vary. In the spirit of the advice
in the style guide and https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments#imports,
his change makes an effort to clean up and normalize import aliasing.

This change makes no API or behavioral changes. It is a pure cleanup intended
o help make the code more readable to developers (including myself) trying to
understand what is being imported where.

Only unexported names have been modified, and the changes were generated and
applied mechanically with gofmt -r and comby, respecting the lexical and
syntactic rules of Go.  Even so, I did not fix every inconsistency. Where the
changes would be too disruptive, I left it alone.

The principles I followed in this cleanup are:

- Remove aliases that restate the package name.
- Remove aliases where the base package name is unambiguous.
- Move overly-terse abbreviations from the import to the usage site.
- Fix lexical issues (remove underscores, remove capitalization).
- Fix import groupings to more closely match the style guide.
- Group blank (side-effecting) imports and ensure they are commented.
- Add aliases to multiple imports with the same base package name.

Closes #5135

Also, wrote a test for WriteRPCResponseHTTPError and used it with correct status codes according to https://www.jsonrpc.org/historical/json-rpc-over-http.html#response-codes

Migrates the `rpc` package to use new JSON encoder in #4955. Branched off of that PR.

Tests pass, but I haven't done any manual testing beyond that. This should be handled as part of broader 0.34 testing.

Closes https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/issues/3857

Moves `lib/` folder to `jsonrpc/`.

What is done in this PR:

    JSONRPCClient: validate that Response.ID matches Request.ID I wanted
    to do the same for the WSClient, but since we're sending events as
    responses, not notifications, checking IDs would require storing
    them in memory indefinitely (and we won't be able to remove them
    upon client unsubscribing because ID is different then).

    Request.ID is now optional. Notification is a Request without an ID.
    Previously "" or 0 were considered as notifications

    Remove #event suffix from ID from an event response (partially fixes
    #2949) ID must be either string, int or null AND must be equal to
    request's ID. Now, because we've implemented events as responses, WS
    clients are tripping when they see Response.ID("0#event") !=
    Request.ID("0"). Implementing events as requests would require a lot
    of time (~ 2 days to completely rewrite WS client and server)

    generate unique ID for each request

    switch to integer IDs instead of "json-client-XYZ"
    id=0 method=/subscribe
    id=0 result=...
    id=1 method=/abci_query
    id=1 result=...

> send events (resulting from /subscribe) as requests+notifications (not
responses)

this will require a lot of work. probably not worth it

* rpc: generate an unique ID for each request
in conformance with JSON-RPC spec

Continues from #3280 in building support for batched requests/responses in the JSON RPC (as per issue #3213).

* Add JSON RPC batching for client and server

As per #3213, this adds support for [JSON RPC batch requests and
responses](https://www.jsonrpc.org/specification#batch).

* Add additional checks to ensure client responses are the same as results

* Fix case where a notification is sent and no response is expected

* Add test to check that JSON RPC notifications in a batch are left out in responses

* Update CHANGELOG_PENDING.md

* Update PR number now that PR has been created

* Make errors start with lowercase letter

* Refactor batch functionality to be standalone

This refactors the batching functionality to rather act in a standalone
way. In light of supporting concurrent goroutines making use of the same
client, it would make sense to have batching functionality where one
could create a batch of requests per goroutine and send that batch
without interfering with a batch from another goroutine.

* Add examples for simple and batch HTTP client usage

* Check errors from writer and remove nolinter directives

* Make error strings start with lowercase letter

* Refactor examples to make them testable

* Use safer deferred shutdown for example Tendermint test node

* Recompose rpcClient interface from pre-existing interface components

* Rename WaitGroup for brevity

* Replace empty ID string with request ID

* Remove extraneous test case

* Convert first letter of errors.Wrap() messages to lowercase

* Remove extraneous function parameter

* Make variable declaration terse

* Reorder WaitGroup.Done call to help prevent race conditions in the face of failure

* Swap mutex to value representation and remove initialization

* Restore empty JSONRPC string ID in response to prevent nil

* Make JSONRPCBufferedRequest private

* Revert PR hard link in CHANGELOG_PENDING

* Add client ID for JSONRPCClient

This adds code to automatically generate a randomized client ID for the
JSONRPCClient, and adds a check of the IDs in the responses (if one was
set in the requests).

* Extract response ID validation into separate function

* Remove extraneous comments

* Reorder fields to indicate clearly which are protected by the mutex

* Refactor for loop to remove indexing

* Restructure and combine loop

* Flatten conditional block for better readability

* Make multi-variable declaration slightly more readable

* Change for loop style

* Compress error check statements

* Make function description more generic to show that we support different protocols

* Preallocate memory for request and result objects

* limit number of /subscribe clients and queries per client

Add the following config variables (under [rpc] section):
  * max_subscription_clients
  * max_subscriptions_per_client
  * timeout_broadcast_tx_commit

Fixes #2826

new HTTPClient interface for subscriptions

For https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/issues/708

Reported initially in #708, this bug was reconfirmed
by the fuzzer.

This fix ensures that:
* if the user doesn't pass in `"id"` that we send them back
a message in an error telling them to send `"id"`. Previously
we let the handler return a 200 with nothing.
* passing in nil `params` doesn't crash
* not passing in `params` doesn't crash
* passing in non-JSON parseable data to `params` doesn't crash
