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.
