bc6d8a3662f0fb992073e5e80269a90a722d76e0 gui: Refactor OpenWalletActivity (João Barbosa)

Pull request description:

  This PR adds a menu option to create a new wallet. When clicked, a `CreateWalletDialog` will be created and prompt the user to name the wallet and choose whether to disable private keys, make a blank wallet, and encrypt the wallet. If the wallet is encrypted, the wallet will be born encrypted with the wallet first created blank, then encrypted, and then a new HD seed generated and set.

  To allow the newly created wallets to be encrypted, some changes to how encrypting a wallet works. Instead of encrypting and locking the wallet, the wallet will be encrypted and then unlocked. This is also an extra belt-and-suspenders check to make sure that encryption worked.

    ACK 613de61a04c210a51af9997e69f66439a17a632a - re-reviewed on macOS. I'm going to merge this now. It's had a stack of review, and as mentioned multiple times above, lets get this into `master` so it can get more testing pre `v0.19.0`.
