addmultisigaddress nrequired ["key",...] ( "label" "address_type" )

Add an nrequired-to-sign multisignature address to the wallet. Requires a new wallet backup.
Each key is a Bitcoin address or hex-encoded public key.
This functionality is only intended for use with non-watchonly addresses.
See `importaddress` for watchonly p2sh address support.
If 'label' is specified, assign address to that label.

Arguments:
1. nrequired       (numeric, required) The number of required signatures out of the n keys or addresses.
2. keys            (json array, required) The bitcoin addresses or hex-encoded public keys
     [
       "key",      (string) bitcoin address or hex-encoded public key
       ...
     ]
3. label           (string, optional) A label to assign the addresses to.
4. address_type    (string, optional, default=set by -addresstype) The address type to use. Options are "legacy", "p2sh-segwit", and "bech32".

Result:
{                            (json object)
  "address" : "str",         (string) The value of the new multisig address
  "redeemScript" : "hex",    (string) The string value of the hex-encoded redemption script
  "descriptor" : "str"       (string) The descriptor for this multisig
}
