There are a few layers of bullshit to this PR.
First, there is the fact that it adds a functional test gated on a new
config flag which is disabled by default, so it actually adds broken
code with no tests, waiting to ruin your day 520 PRs later when #21935
enables the broken test.
Second, the test appears to be superficially nonsensical because it
generates two transactions from different wallets and tries to compare
them for byte-for-byte equality, which doesn't make sense (at least)
because change outputs are randomly located...so something fishy is
going on.
Of course, in Elements the transactions are *not* equal half the time
because the outputs are permuted, which may have let me quickly figure
out the issue, except...
Third, there is a red herring of a bug where the two transactions have
slightly different feerates. This turns out to be caused by
CWallet::CalculateMaximumSignedTxSize using differently sized dummy
transactions depending on whether watchonly outputs are included (this
fact is conveniently disguised by #17211 slightly changing this logic;
this is an unmerged PR in Core that Elements has a backport of an old
version of). And the two wallets have different watchonly settings.
A sub-red-herring is the fact that this bug results in a discrepancy
of 0.25 vbytes, so it does not appear in Core but does appear in
Elements (there is a 3/16 probability that we should be so unlucky...
we are).
But this is all irrelevant, because...
Fourth, this test is actually super bullshit. The way it works is by
constructing a PSBT legitimately, saving this to disk, then re-"signs"
using the external signer interface by using a mock signer that
COMPLETELY REPLACES THE TRANSACTION UNDER CONSTRUCTION. So it doesn't
matter what the fee output looks like and it doesn't matter what the
order of the outputs. Core does not detect this malfeasance and
neither does Elements. For some reason, Core has a functional test
that explicitly checks that you can do this even though it is insane
and it is hard to think of non-malicious reasons to do it.
Fifth, while Elements fails to detect that its external signer is
actually changing the transaction out from under it, it DOES assume
that this won't happen. In CWallet::SignPSBT it blithely un-replaces
the transaction, which undermines the functional test.
Sixth, the original PR where this test was introduced has comments
locked, so anyone who spent six hours reverse-engineering this idiotic
broken test, and is still feeling charitable enough to discuss it with
the Core developors, can go pound sand.
Anyway, just disabled the broken test and move on with our lives.

62252c95e5 interfaces: Stop exposing wallet destdata to gui (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:
Stop giving GUI access to destdata rows in database. Replace with narrow API just for saving and reading receive request information.
This simplifies code and should prevent the GUI from interfering with other destdata like address-used status. It also adds some more GUI test coverage.
There are no changes in behavior.

This commit moves the ExternalSigner class and RPC methods out of the wallet module.
The enumeratesigners RPC can be used without a wallet since #21417.
With additional modifications external signers could be used without a wallet in general, e.g. via signrawtransaction.
The signerdisplayaddress RPC is ranamed to walletdisplayaddress because it requires wallet context.
A future displayaddress RPC call without wallet context could take a descriptor argument.
This commit fixes a rpc_help.py failure when configured with --disable-wallet.
This bug doesn't have any effects currently because it only affects
external signer RPCs which aren't currently using the wallet context,
but it does cause an appveyor failure in a upcoming PR:
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/DrahtBot/bitcoin/builds/38512882
This bug is subtle and could have been avoided if JSONRPCRequest didn't
have constructors that were so loose with type checking. Suggested
change
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21366#issuecomment-792044351
eliminates these and would be a good followup for a future PR.
Stop giving GUI access to destdata rows in database. Replace with narrow
API just for saving and reading receive request information.
This simplifies code and should prevent the GUI from interfering with
other destdata like address-used status.
Note: No user-visible behavior is changing in this commit. New
CWallet::SetAddressReceiveRequest() implementation avoids a bug in
CWallet::AddDestData() where a modification would leave the previous
value in memory while writing the new value to disk. But it doesn't
matter because the GUI doesn't currently expose the ability to modify
receive requests, only to add and erase them.

Pull request description:
This PR does not change behavior when bitcoin is built normally with both the SQLite and BDB libraries. It just makes non-SQLite and non-BDB builds more similar to the normal build. Specifically:
- It makes wallet directory lists always include all wallets so wallets don't appear missing depending on the build.
- It now triggers specific "Build does not support SQLite database format" and "Build does not support Berkeley DB database format" errors if a wallet can't be loaded instead of the more ambiguous and scary "Data is not in recognized format" error.
Both changes are implemented in the last commit. The previous commits are just refactoring cleanups that make the last commit possible and consolidate and reduce code.
