The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only adds a new automated test to the project. It does not change any production code, so by itself it cannot introduce a security vulnerability or fix one. The test checks that the software can correctly handle PSBT files where wallet fingerprints are all zeros, which can happen when a wallet is created from an extended public key (XPUB) without a full derivation path. The test verifies the software can match the public keys against the seed and fill in the correct fingerprint.

Recommended action

No action required for security. Review the related production code change that this test presumably accompanies, if any, to assess whether the zero-fingerprint handling logic itself is sound.
