  Addresses and closes #22368

  As per that issue (and its predecessor #14907), there seems to be some interest in allowing unspent outputs to be locked persistently. This PR does so by adding a flag to lockunspent to store the change in the wallet database. Defaults to false, so there is no change in default behaviour.

  Edit: GUI commit changes default behaviour. UTXOs locked/unlocked via the GUI are now persistent.

Notable changes
===============
Updated RPCs
------------
- `lockunspent` now optionally takes a third parameter, `persistent`, which
causes the lock to be written persistently to the wallet database. This
allows UTXOs to remain locked even after node restarts or crashes.
GUI changes
-----------
- UTXOs which are locked via the GUI are now stored persistently in the
wallet database, so are not lost on node shutdown or crash.
