Switch TestWalletSource to use P2WPKH script

We plan to reuse it for dual-funding/splicing, and those require
standard SegWit inputs only.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit changes a test-only helper in the Lightning Dev Kit codebase so that its fake wallet produces a more modern type of Bitcoin address (SegWit/P2WPKH) instead of the older P2PKH format. The change only affects internal test utilities and does not alter production code, network behavior, or cryptographic security. There is no indication this fixes or introduces a vulnerability.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as routine test-infrastructure refactoring. If reviewing for a release, verify that dependent dual-funding/splicing tests correctly exercise P2WPKH inputs.
