wallet: avoid returning a reference to vMasterKey after releasing the…
… mutex that guards it `CWallet::GetEncryptionKey()` would return a reference to the internal `CWallet::vMasterKey`, guarded by `CWallet::cs_wallet`, which is unsafe. Returning a copy would be a shorter solution, but could have security implications of the master key remaining somewhere in the memory even after `CWallet::Lock()` (the current calls to `CWallet::GetEncryptionKey()` are safe, but that is not future proof). So, instead of `EncryptSecret(m_storage.GetEncryptionKey(), ...` introduce a wallet method `CWallet::EncryptSecret()` which locks the mutex and calls the external `EncryptSecret()` with the master key. Same for `DecryptKey()`. This silences the following (clang 18): ``` wallet/wallet.cpp:3520:12: error: returning variable 'vMasterKey' by reference requires holding mutex 'cs_wallet' [-Werror,-Wthread-safety-reference-return] 3520 | return vMasterKey; | ^ ```
