Merge #773: Check for private keys disabled before attempting unlock

517c7f9 gui: Check for private keys disabled before attempting unlock (Andrew Chow)

Pull request description:

  Before trying to unlock a wallet, first check if it has private keys disabled. If so, there is no need to unlock.

  Note that such wallets are not expected to occur in typical usage. However bugs in previous versions allowed such wallets to be created, and so we need to handle them.

  Fixes #772

  For some additional context, see #631
