8f9f53a618 Switch to new waddrmgr package
This commit converts the wallet to use the new secure hierarchical
deterministic wallet address manager package as well as the walletdb
package.

The following is an overview of modified functionality:

- The wallet must now be created before starting the executable
- A new flag --create has been added to create the new wallet using wizard
  style question and answer prompts
- Starting the process without an existing wallet will instruct now
  display a message to run it with --create
- Providing the --create flag with an existing wallet will simply show an
  error and return

In addition the snacl package has been modified to return the memory after
performing scrypt operations to the OS.

Previously a runtime.GC was being invoked which forced it to release the
memory as far as the garbage collector is concerned, but the memory was
not released back to the OS immediatley.  This modification allows the
memory to be released immedately since it won't be needed again until the
next wallet unlock.
