fac9539836 qa: Run all tests even if wallet is not compiled (MarcoFalke)
faa669cbcd qa: Premine to deterministic address with -disablewallet (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Currently the test_runner would exit if the wallet was not compiled into the Bitcoin Core executable. However, a lot of the tests run without the wallet just fine and there is no need to globally require the wallet to run the tests.

fac3e22b18 qa: Read reject reasons from debug log, not p2p messages (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
For local testing we don't need to rely on p2p messages just to assert a reject reason.
Replace reading p2p messages with reading from the debug log file.

This removes the need to do so manually every time a connection is added.

This commit adds a boolean option `-enablebip61`, defaulting to `1`, that
can be used to disable the sending of BIP61 `reject` messages. This
functionality has been requested for various reasons:
- security (DoS): reject messages can reveal internal state that can be
used to target certain resources such as the mempool more easily.
- bandwidth: a typical node sends lots of reject messages; this counts
against upstream bandwidth. Also the reject messages tend to be larger
than the message that was rejected.
On the other hand, reject messages can be useful while developing client
software (I found them indispensable while creating bitcoin-submittx),
as well as for our own test cases, so whatever the default becomes on the
long run, IMO the functionality should be retained as option. But that's
a discussion for later.
