unit tests: do not mock save_db

Create in-memory wallets instead.

The logic of calling save_db() at specific places is specific to
the current JsonDB backend, and it does not generalize well.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only changes unit tests. It removes the practice of mocking (faking) the wallet save function and instead creates in-memory wallets that don't touch disk. There is no change to the actual Electrum wallet application or its security behavior.

Recommended action

No security action needed. This is a test-only refactoring. Reviewers may verify that CI passes and that in-memory wallet creation does not inadvertently skip persistence assertions.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
