zapwallettxes should probably clear the mempoool? #12400

I was trying to clean out some transactions out of a wallet, so I restarted bitcoin with -zapwallettxes, but after rescanning it ended up having the same transactions again. The next time I deleted the mempool.dat and restarted with zapwallettxes and it actually worked.

So thinking it probably makes sense that the default behavior of zapwallettxes is to clear out the mempool at launch.

Or at least clear wallet transactions from the mempool?

I guess this is fixed since 0.15 (see #10330). @RHavar: what version of Bitcoin Core have you used while detecting this misbehaviour?
