// RegisterCmd registers a new command that will automatically marshal to and
// from JSON-RPC with full type checking and positional parameter support.  It
// also accepts usage flags which identify the circumstances under which the
// command can be used.
//
// This package automatically registers all of the exported commands by default
// using this function, however it is also exported so callers can easily
// register custom types.
//
// The type format is very strict since it needs to be able to automatically
// marshal to and from JSON-RPC 1.0.  The following enumerates the requirements:
//
//   - The provided command must be a single pointer to a struct
//   - All fields must be exported
//   - The order of the positional parameters in the marshalled JSON will be in
//     the same order as declared in the struct definition
//   - Struct embedding is not supported
//   - Struct fields may NOT be channels, functions, complex, or interface
//   - A field in the provided struct with a pointer is treated as optional
//   - Multiple indirections (i.e **int) are not supported
//   - Once the first optional field (pointer) is encountered, the remaining
//     fields must also be optional fields (pointers) as required by positional
//     params
//   - A field that has a 'jsonrpcdefault' struct tag must be an optional field
//     (pointer)
//
// NOTE: This function only needs to be able to examine the structure of the
// passed struct, so it does not need to be an actual instance.  Therefore, it
// is recommended to simply pass a nil pointer cast to the appropriate type.
// For example, (*FooCmd)(nil).
