dd8fa86 test: use tagged ephemeral MiniWallet instance in fill_mempool (Sebastian Falbesoner)

c8e6d08 test: refactor: eliminate COINBASE_MATURITY magic number in fill_mempool (Sebastian Falbesoner)
4f34714 test: refactor: move fill_mempool to new module mempool_util (Sebastian Falbesoner)

Pull request description:

  Different MiniWallet instances using the same mode (either ADDRESS_OP_TRUE, RAW_OP_TRUE or RAW_P2PK) currently always create and spend UTXOs with identical output scripts, which can cause unintentional tx dependencies (see e.g. the discussion in #29827 (comment)). In order to avoid mixing of UTXOs between instances, this PR introduces the possibility to provide a MiniWallet tag name, that is used to derive a different internal key for the taproot construction, leading to a different P2TR output script. Note that since we use script-path spending and only the key-path is changed here, no changes in the MiniWallet spending logic are needed.

  The new tagging option is then used in the `fill_mempool` helper to create an ephemeral wallet for the filling txs, as suggested in #29827 (comment). To avoid circular dependencies, `fill_mempool` is moved to a new module `mempool_util.py` first.

  I'm still not sure if a generic word like "tag" is the right term for what this tries to achieve, happy to pick up better suggestions. Also, maybe passing a tag name is overkill and a boolean flag like "random_output_script" is sufficient?
