It is unnecessary to upgrade to FEATURE_HD_SPLIT if this feature is
already supported by the wallet. Because upgrading to FEATURE_HD_SPLIT
actually requires upgrading to FEATURE_PRE_SPLIT_KEYPOOL, users would
accidentally be upgraded to FEATURE_PRE_SPLIT_KEYPOOL instead of nothing
being done.

Pull request description:
This PR cleans up the wallet upgrade mechanism a bit, fixes some probably bugs, and adds more test cases.
The `nWalletMaxVersion` member variable has been removed as it made `CanSupportFeature` unintuitive and was causing a couple of bugs. The reason this was introduced originally was to allow a wallet upgrade to only occur when the new feature is first used. While this makes sense for the old `-upgradewallet` option, for an RPC, this does not quite make sense. It's more intuitive for an upgrade to occur if possible if the `upgradewallet` RPC is used as that's an explicit request to upgrade a particular wallet to a newer version. `nWalletMaxVersion` was only relevant for upgrades to `FEATURE_WALLETCRYPT` and `FEATURE_COMPRPUBKEY` both of which are incredibly old features. So for such wallets, the behavior of `upgradewallet` will be that the feature is enabled immediately without the wallet needing to be encrypted at that time (note that `FEATURE_WALLETCRYPT` indicates support for encryption, not that the wallet is encrypted) or for a new key to be generated.
`CanSupportFeature` would previously indicate whether we could upgrade to `nWalletMaxVersion` not just whether the current wallet version supported a feature. While this property was being used to determine whether we should upgrade to HD and HD chain split, it was also causing a few bugs. Determining whether we should upgrade to HD or HD chain split is resolved by passing into `ScriptPubKeyMan::Upgrade` the version we are upgrading to and checking against that. By removing `nWalletMaxVersion` we also fix a bug where you could upgrade to HD chain split without the pre-split keypool.
`nWalletMaxVersion` was also the version that was being reported by `getwalletinfo` which meant that the version reported was not always consistent across restarts as it depended on whether `upgradewallet` was used. Additionally to make the wallet versions consistent with actually supported versions, instead of just setting the wallet version to whatever is given to `upgradewallet`, we normalize the version number to the closest supported version number. For example, if given 150000, we would store and report 139900.
Another bug where CHDChain was not being upgraded to the version supporting HD chain split is also fixed by this PR.
Lastly several more tests have been added. Some refactoring to the test was made to make these tests easier. These tests check specific upgrading scenarios, such as from non-HD (version 60000) to HD to pre-split keypool. Although not specifically related to `upgradewallet`, `UpgradeKeyMetadata` is now being tested too.
Part of the new tests is checking that the wallet files are identical before and after failed upgrades. To facilitate this, a utility function `sha256sum_file` has been added. Another part of the tests is to examine the wallet file itself to ensure that the records in the wallet.dat file have been correctly modified. So a new `bdb.py` module has been added to deserialize the BDB db of the wallet.dat file. This format isn't explicitly documented anywhere, but the code and comments in BDB's source code in file `dbinc/db_page.h` describe it. This module just dumps all of the fields into a dict.

ACK 5f9c0b6360, approach seems fine, code review, only skimmed the test changes but they look well done, rebased on current master, debug built and verified the `wallet_upgradewallet.py` test runs green both before and after running `test/get_previous_releases.py -b v0.19.1 v0.18.1 v0.17.2 v0.16.3 v0.15.2`

- Get rid of hardcoded wallet "" names and -wallet="" args
- Get rid of setup_nodes (-wallet, -nowallet, -disablewallet) argument rewriting
Motivation:
- Simplify test framework behavior so it's easier to write new tests without
having arguments mangled by the framework
- Make tests more readable, replacing unexplained "" string literals with
default_wallet_name references
- Make it trivial to update default wallet name and wallet data filename for
sqlite #19077 testing
- Stop relying on -wallet arguments to create wallets, so it is easy to change
-wallet option in the future to only load existing wallets not create new
ones (to avoid accidental wallet creation, and encourage use of wallet
encryption and descriptor features)
No longer create a default wallet. The default wallet will still be
loaded if it exists and not other wallets were specified (anywhere,
including settings.json, bitcoin.conf, and command line).
Tests are updated to be started with -wallet= if they need the default
wallet.
Added test to wallet_startup.py testing that no default wallet is
created and that it is loaded if it exists and no other wallets were
specified.
