rpc: Run type check on decodepsbt result

For RPCResults, the type may be ELISION, which is confusing and brittle:

* The elision should only affect the help output, not the type.
* The type should be the real type, so that type checks can be run on
  it.

Fix this issue by introducing a new print_elision option and using it
in decodepsbt.

This change will ensure that RPCResult::MatchesType is properly run.
Also, this clarifies the RPC output minimally:
