qml: refactor BIP39 account scan to asyncio tasks.

The thread around waiting on a Future was unnecessary, and can simply be done
using the Future's done_callback.

This also allows better handling of the scan's lifecycle, e.g. when the wizard starts
a scan, goes back a page, then next and scan again. The extra thread was more complex
to clean up.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a code cleanup in Electrum's mobile-style QML wallet wizard. It replaces an extra background thread with a simpler asyncio-based callback for scanning BIP39 seed accounts. There is no indication this fixes a security bug; it appears to be a maintainability and lifecycle-handling improvement.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as normal code-quality/maintenance review.
