    This is a small follow-up to #34693 and addresses the remaining C++ help/warning strings discussed in #32565.

    Some help and warning strings in bitcoind and bitcoin-wallet currently refer to markdown files under doc/ that are available in the source tree but are not shipped with Bitcoin Core binaries. This makes those messages less useful for users running distributed binaries.

    This PR removes those references from:

    • src/init.cpp
    • src/wallet/init.cpp

    The scope is intentionally narrow. It does not:

    • change behavior
    • ship documentation files
    • refactor the help system

    Testing:

    • git diff --check

    No new tests were added, since this change only updates user-facing help/warning text and does not modify behavior. Fixes #32565.
