Additional types for JsonRPC endpoints

Change Description

Several more types added for all JsonRPC functions. Additionally added return types for other functions that did not have them. A new test system was also added in order to make sure these JsonRPC endpoint types stay accurate to nodeos.

Are there going to be any backward compatibility issues for users using these new types?

[bradlhart]

The types are meant to match with the latest release for eos. That might mean that there will be incompatibility with older versions of eos, but technically that would also be true for things like get_kv_table_rows not existing on anything other than 2.1. The release notes will likely have information about how to fix such incompatibility, such as overriding the type to any or a user-defined type. Despite that possibility, having these types for eosjs will inform the developers better and enhance the documentation.

The only part that is difficult about this process is that a single-node eos process might not produce as much information in the responses as a multi-node setup would so there might be some inaccuracies. If they are present, these should be solved quickly with a patch version.
