The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only adds a new automated test to Bitcoin Core. It checks that if you try to import wallet descriptors while the wallet is already busy rescanning the blockchain, the second import attempt is rejected with a clear error message. There is no change to production wallet code, so this patch does not fix or introduce any live security issue by itself.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as normal test-coverage commit during review.

Security signals we found

01

No production code changed

02

Adds regression/behavioral test for concurrent wallet rescan handling

03

Existing error path (-4 'Wallet is currently rescanning') is exercised, not newly introduced
