Fix Typesafe Merge Error caused by wallet.enabled setting	dev		bisq-network/bisq2#550
Fix: macOS App file permission loss bug	dev		bisq-network/bisq2#551
ElectrumWalletService: Expose balance as observable coin	dev		bisq-network/bisq2#552
Implement new simplified wallet UI	dev		bisq-network/bisq2#553	The previous wallet UI was an early prototype to test the wallet functionalities. It was not user-friendly. The new wallet UI exposes only the basic functionalities to the user.
Fix sending stop signal twice to Electrum daemon	dev		bisq-network/bisq2#554	The ElectrumProcess and ElectrumWallet both called the stop RPC call in their shutdown methods. The ElectrumProcess should be the one who is responsible for shutting down the daemon. Sadly, Electrum does not provide a unload wallet RPC method.
Switch from AES-CBC to AES-GCM	dev		bisq-network/bisq2#555	AES in Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) provides authenticity and confidentiality (AEDEAD). We have to ensure that we use unique IVs. This means we no longer need to handle authentication manually. GCM can ran fully parallelized compared to CBC.
Generalize binary downloader/verifier	dev		bisq-network/bisq2#571	The new generic download task can download any file and can check its SHA-256 checksum (optional). The signature verifier can be used for any file now. This allows us to reuse the tasks to download the Tor binaries later. Other changes: Currently, all Electrum binaries get zipped and moved to the app resources. This okay until we decided to unpack the Electum.app file at build time. To build the macOS version we require macOS as the host operating system now. Fixes #561
i18n: Remove old/unused string from wallet ui	dev		bisq-network/bisq2#572
Security: Rename cyphertext to ciphertext	dev		bisq-network/bisq2#573
