bda84a08a0ac92dff6cadc99cf9bb8c3fadd7e13 rpc: Add documentation for deactivating settxfee (Fabian Jahr)

Pull request description:

  ~~Closes 18315~~

  `settxfee` can be deactivated by passing 0 as the fee. That does not seem to be documented for the user so this PR adds it in the description. The return value of a simple boolean seems also too simplified given the multiple dimensions that this deactivation feature enables. I.e. it does not seem intuitive if the returned boolean shows that the call succeeded or if means that `settxfee` is active. My suggested solution is to change the return value to a JSON object that included the "active" state and the currently set fee rate.

  Examples:
  ```
  $ src/bitcoin-cli settxfee 0.0000000
  {
    "active": false,
    "fee_rate": "0.00000000 BTC/kB"
  }
  $ src/bitcoin-cli settxfee 0.0001
  {
    "active": true,
    "fee_rate": "0.00010000 BTC/kB"
  }
  ```
