bd13dc2f46 Switch hardened derivation marker to h in descriptors (Sjors Provoost)
Pull request description:
This makes it easier to handle descriptor strings manually, especially when importing from another Bitcoin Core wallet.
For example the `importdescriptors` RPC call is easiest to use `h` as the marker: `'["desc": ".../0h/..."]'`, avoiding the need for escape characters. With this change `listdescriptors` will use `h`, so you can copy-paste the result, without having to add escape characters or switch `'` to 'h' manually.
Both markers can still be parsed.
The `hdkeypath` field in `getaddressinfo` is also impacted by this change, except for legacy wallets. The latter is to prevent accidentally breaking ancient software that uses our legacy wallet.

This makes it easier to handle descriptor strings manually. E.g. an RPC call that takes an array of descriptors can now use '["desc": ".../0h/..."]'.
Both markers can still be parsed. The default for new descriptors is changed to h. In normalized form h is also used. For private keys the chosen marker is preserved in a round trip.
The hdkeypath field in getaddressinfo is also impacted by this change.
Since migration reloads the wallet, the wallet will always be locked
unless the passphrase is given. migratewallet can now take the
passphrase in order to unlock the wallet for migration.

Pull request description:
When `migratewallet` fails, we do an automatic cleanup in order to reset everything so that the user does not experience any interruptions. However, this apparently has a segfault in it, caused by the the pointers to the watchonly and solvables wallets being nullptr. If those wallets are not created (either not needed, or failed early on), we will accidentally attempt to dereference these nullptrs, which causes a segfault.
This failure can be easily reached by trying to migrate an encrypted wallet. Currently, we can't migrate encrypted wallets because of how we unload wallets before migrating, and therefore forget the encryption key if the wallet was unlocked. So any encrypted wallets will fail, entering the cleanup, and because watchonly and solvables wallets don't exist yet, the segfault is reached.
This PR fixes this by not putting those nullptrs in a place that we will end up dereferencing them later. It also adds a test that uses the encrypted wallet issue.

Due to an oversight, we cannot currently migrate encrypted wallets,
regardless of whether they are unlocked. Migrating such wallets will
trigger an error, and result in the cleanup being run. This conveniently
allows us to check some parts of the cleanup code.
Review note: The changes are complete, because self.options.descriptors
is set to None in parse_args (test_framework.py).
A value of None implies -disablewallet, see the previous commit.
So if a call to add_wallet_options is missing, it will lead to a test
failure when the wallet is compiled in.
