[Wallet] [RPC] Remove deprecated wallet rpc features from bitcoin_server #12490

1.

   The following rpc features were deprecated in V0.17:

   • validateaddress returning wallet information about an address
   • signrawtransaction

   This PR fully removes those features. It can be merged once V0.17 has been branched from master.

   open-closing this PR so the branch is available to everyone. This + #10762 should allow server to be built without any dependencies on wallet.

   Will re-open once V0.17 has been branched.

   Edit: #10762 has been merged. I’ve now rebased this on master.

    What was the reasoning behind this? It seems unnecessary.

    @ptyx11 This is part of the separation of the wallet from the node. Those RPCs were node RPCs which involved wallet things, so they needed to be removed. They have been deprecated for at least one major version with replacement RPCs already available.
