ad085f9ba15c131fc5cc77086a620f2e366aac7c multiprocess: Delay wallet client construction (Russell Yanofsky)
Pull request description:
Delay wallet client construction until after logging, thread and other init for two reasons:
- More responsive multiprocess GUI startup. When bitcoin-gui is started this moves the call from bitcoin-gui to bitcoin-node that spawns bitcoin-wallet off of the GUI event thread and onto the background GUI init executor thread.
- Avoids feature_logging.py test failures with bitcoin-node by making bitcoin-wallet logging start after bitcoin-node logging starts,
because the tests are not written to handle the bitcoin-wallet logging init code running first.
This partially reverts commit b266b3e0bf29d0f3d5deaeec62d57c5025b35525, moving wallet client creation back to the place it was located before.

src/node/
The src/node/ directory contains code that needs to access node state
(state in CChain, CBlockIndex, CCoinsView, CTxMemPool, and similar
classes).
Code in src/node/ is meant to be segregated from code in
src/wallet/ and src/qt/, to ensure wallet and GUI
code changes don't interfere with node operation, to allow wallet and GUI code
to run in separate processes, and to perhaps eventually allow wallet and GUI
code to be maintained in separate source repositories.
As a rule of thumb, code in one of the src/node/,
src/wallet/, or src/qt/ directories should avoid
calling code in the other directories directly, and only invoke it indirectly
through the more limited src/interfaces/ classes.
This directory is at the moment
sparsely populated. Eventually more substantial files like
src/validation.cpp and
src/txmempool.cpp might be moved there.
