The return value of f.write and f.seek cannot be compared when using open() in text mode:
```
>>> import os
>>> s = "aá"
>>>
>>> with open("a1", "w", encoding='utf-8') as f:
... a = f.write(s)
... pos = f.seek(0, os.SEEK_END)
... print(a, pos)
...
2 3
>>>
>>> with open("a2", "wb") as f:
... a = f.write(s.encode('utf-8'))
... pos = f.seek(0, os.SEEK_END)
... print(a, pos)
...
3 3
```
Was getting errors on Windows, probably due to `\r\n` vs `\n`?

- partial writes are append only.
- StoredDict objects will append partial writes to the wallet
file when items are added, replaced, removed.
- Lists in the wallet file that have not been registered
as StoredObject are converted to StoredList, which
overloads append() and remove(). Those methods too will
append partial writes to the wallet file.
- Unlike the old jsonpatch branch, this branch does not support
file encryption. Encrypted files always fully rewritten, even
if the change before encryption is a partial write.
Note in particular that check_password_for_directory was not safe to use while the daemon had wallets loaded,
as the same file would have two corresponding Wallet() instances in memory. This was specifically handled in
the kivy GUI, on the caller side, by stopping-before and reloading-after the wallets; but it was dirty to
have the caller handle this.
Re total runtime of WalletDB.write() and file size on disk,
for a large encrypted wallet, compare:
before (zlib level=6):
file size 16_670 KB
JsonDB.dump 0.5099 sec
zlib.compress 1.3280 sec
ECPubkey.encrypt_message 0.1720 sec
after change (zlib level=1):
file size 17_527 KB
JsonDB.dump 0.5344 sec
zlib.compress 0.5320 sec
ECPubkey.encrypt_message 0.1837 sec
The standard json module has an optimized C encoder, but that doesn't
currently support indentation. So if you request indentation, it falls
back on the slower Python encoder.
Readability doesn't matter for encrypted wallets, so this disables
indentation when the wallet is encrypted.

previously load_transactions() had to be called before upgrade();
now we reverse this order.
to reproduce/illustrate issue, before this commit:
try running convert_version_17 and convert_version_18
(e.g. see testcase test_upgrade_from_client_2_9_3_old_seeded_with_realistic_history)
and then in qt console:
>> wallet.storage.db.get_data_ref('spent_outpoints') == wallet.storage.db.spent_outpoints
False
>> wallet.storage.db.get_data_ref('verified_tx3') == wallet.storage.db.verified_tx
False
When interacting with wizard, there is a single shared storage instance.
If you go down the tree of dialogs, press "back" a couple times, go
down another branch of dialogs, etc, there are side-effects on storage,
which are never undone.
