Subject: [PATCH] wallet: remove unused WalletDatabase::m_refcount

The counter is never incremented. Only the BDB implementation ever
maintained it, and that went away in 04a7a7a28c ("build, wallet, doc:
Remove BDB"). `AddRef()` and `RemoveRef()`, which the comment above the
member describes as maintaining it, were removed in c0f3f3264f
("wallet: Remove unused db functions"), leaving the member behind.
