Merge #15454: Remove the automatic creation and loading of the default wallet

d26f0648f1c0d1115dcb8d76e57195032b88f400 Tell users how to load or create a wallet when no wallet is loaded (Andrew Chow)
1bee1e6269b76b52b1eab9112d39c245beaa27a2 Do not create default wallet (Andrew Chow)

Pull request description:

  Instead of automatically creating and loading a default wallet, users should instead explicitly create their wallet or load it on start.

  Builds on #19754 which provides the `load_on_startup` behavior for the GUI.

ACKs for top commit:
  jnewbery:
    Manual test and very light code review ACK d26f0648f1c0d1115dcb8d76e57195032b88f400
  ryanofsky:
    Code review ACK d26f0648f1c0d1115dcb8d76e57195032b88f400. Just suggested changes to first commit (reusing MakeWalletDatabase and adding release notes), no changes to second commit
  jonatack:
    ACK d26f0648f1c0d1115dcb8d76e57195032b88f400 light code review, debug build, ran tests, did manual testing with testnet, rebased on master, on linux debian.

+Wallet
+------
+
+Bitcoin Core will no longer create an unnamed `""` wallet by default when no wallet is specified on the command line or in the configuration files.
+For backwards compatibility, if an unnamed `""` wallet already exists and would have been loaded previously, then it will still be loaded.
+Users without an unnamed `""` wallet and without any other wallets to be loaded on startup  will be prompted to either choose a wallet to load, or to create a new wallet.
