Nothing on the control socket reports the node's chain position, so tests can see it peer with Bitcoin Core but not that it followed the chain. Add a Chain interface in its own schema with a getTip method that returns the active chain height and best block hash, handed out by makeChain the same way the wallet is, plus a chain tip subcommand to the cli to print it.
