Currently, wallet sync is only available during the sign in process and when the balance is 0.

After https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-desktop/issues/3039, we should be able to support all the scenarios, even including encrypted wallets/accounts.

Existing (and new) users should have a wallet sync status and on/off switch available on the wallet page, similar to how we do it on Android. A password should be encouraged but made optional (need copy for this).

Sync apply will ensure that the resulting account merge encrypts all accounts with the synced password. So a user may unlock their account with password X, but then sync to password Y, and now password Y will be used for their accounts.
