rpc: handle shutdown during long poll and wait methods

The waitTipChanged() now returns nullopt if the node is shutting down.

Previously it would return the last known tip during shutdown, but
this creates an ambiguous circumstance in the scenario where the
node is started and quickly shutdown, before notifications().TipBlock()
is set.

The getblocktemplate, waitfornewblock and waitforblockheight RPC
are updated to handle this. Existing behavior is preserved.
