Merge #656: lib: implement a superior workaround for the watchonly wallet on Windows

5680ad27ecce8409d582ebf834bdecb3650b9233 lib: on Windows, migrate the watchonly wallet from bitcoind datadir (Antoine Poinsot)
c9d86f1c75be693e796591be9f1f468687728600 lib: implement a superior workaround for the watchonly wallet on Windows (Antoine Poinsot)

Pull request description:

  See the added comment for the details. No need to store the watchonly wallet under bitcoind's datadir anymore. 🎉 🎉

  I've noticed this while working on fixing #630 on Windows which failed for the same root reason as why the watchonly wallet path didn't work on Windows.

  Fixes #653.
