Russell Yanofsky e4f4350471 refactor: Move wallet methods out of chain.h and node.h 
Add WalletClient interface so node interface is cleaner and don't need
wallet-specific methods.

The new NodeContext::wallet_client pointer will also be needed to eliminate
global wallet variables like ::vpwallets, because createWallet(), loadWallet(),
getWallets(), etc methods called by the GUI need a way to get a reference to
the list of open wallets if it is no longer a global variable.

Also tweaks splash screen registration for load wallet events to be delayed
until after wallet client is created.

Internal c++ interfaces

The following interfaces are defined here:

  • Chain — used by wallet to access blockchain and mempool state. Added in #14437, #14711, #15288, and #10973.

  • ChainClient — used by node to start & stop Chain clients. Added in #14437.

  • Node — used by GUI to start & stop bitcoin node. Added in #10244.

  • Wallet — used by GUI to access wallets. Added in #10244.

  • Handler — returned by handleEvent methods on interfaces above and used to manage lifetimes of event handlers.

  • Init — used by multiprocess code to access interfaces above on startup. Added in #10102.

The interfaces above define boundaries between major components of bitcoin code (node, wallet, and gui), making it possible for them to run in different processes, and be tested, developed, and understood independently. These interfaces are not currently designed to be stable or to be used externally.
