bookkeeper: keep up with new entries if we're doing currency conversion.

If we're doing currency conversion, we can't refresh lazily on each
command: we need to watch for new events and refresh then. This is
fairly easy to do, however.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit fixes a bookkeeping timing issue in Core Lightning. When the bookkeeper plugin is configured to show amounts in a fiat currency, it previously only refreshed currency conversion rates when a user ran a command. Now it actively listens for new on-chain and channel events and refreshes rates immediately, so reports stay up to date without waiting for a manual command. The change is a correctness/quality improvement, not a security vulnerability fix.
