doc: remove unrelated `bitcoin-wallet` binary from `libbitcoin_ipc` description
`bitcoin-wallet` as-is is merely an offline wallet inspection tool
(introduced more than 9 years ago in PR #13926) that doesn't have any
relation with IPC/multiprocess, so remove it from the list of binaries
that use `libbitcoin_ipc`.
What changed, and why it matters
This commit is a documentation-only correction. It removes an incorrect mention of the bitcoin-wallet tool from a design document that describes which programs use the inter-process communication (IPC) library. There is no code change and no security impact.
No action required. This is a benign documentation fix.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The change edits doc/design/libraries.md to remove ‘bitcoin-wallet’ from the list of executables said to use libbitcoin_ipc. The commit message explains bitcoin-wallet is an offline wallet inspection tool unrelated to IPC/multiprocess. No source code, build system, or runtime behavior is modified.
