Pull request description:

  This PR continues and completes the work begun in #17700 working on issue #16000 to create a client-side version of RPC `generate`.

  Basically, `bitcoin-cli -generate` wraps calling `generatenewaddress` followed by `generatetoaddress [nblocks] [maxtries]` and prints the following:

  ```
  $ bitcoin-cli -generate
  {
    "address": "bcrt1qn4aszr2y2xvpa70y675a76wsu70wlkwvdyyln6"
    "blocks": [
      "01d2ebcddf663da90b28da7f6805115e2ba7818f16fe747258836646a43a0bb5",
    ]
  }

  $ bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=wallet-name -generate 3 100
  {
    "address": "bcrt1q4cunfw0gnsj7g7e6mk0v0uuvvau9mwr09dj45l",
    "blocks": [
      "7a6650ca5e0c614992ee64fb148a7e5e022af842e4b6003f81abd8baf1e75136",
      "01d2ebcddf663da90b28da7f6805115e2ba7818f16fe747258836646a43a0bb5",
      "3f8795ec40b1ad812b818c177680841be319a3f6753d4e32dc7dfb5bafe5d00e"
    ]
  }
  ```

  Help doc:
  ```
  $ bitcoin-cli -h | grep -A5 "\-generate"
    -generate
         Generate blocks immediately, equivalent to RPC generatenewaddress
         followed by RPC generatetoaddress. Optional positional arguments
         are number of blocks to generate (default: 1) and maximum
         iterations to try (default: 1000000), equivalent to RPC
         generatetoaddress nblocks and maxtries arguments. Example:
         bitcoin-cli -generate 4 1000
  ```

  Quite a bit of test coverage turned out to be needed to cover the change and the different cases (arguments, multiwallet mode) and error-handling.

  This PR also improves some things that working on these changes brought to light.
