Merge #17824: wallet: Prefer full destination groups in coin selection

a2324e4 test: Improve naming and logging of avoid_reuse tests (Fabian Jahr)
1abbdac wallet: Prefer full destination groups in coin selection (Fabian Jahr)

Pull request description:

  Fixes #17603 (together with #17843)

  In the case of destination groups of >10 outputs existing in a wallet with `avoid_reuse` enabled, the grouping algorithm is adding left-over outputs as an "incomplete" group to the list of groups even when a full group has already been added. This leads to the strange behavior that if there are >10 outputs for a destination the transaction spending from that will effectively use `len(outputs) % 10` as inputs for that transaction.

  From the original PR and the code comment I understand the correct behavior should be the usage of 10 outputs. I opted for minimal changes in the current code although there maybe optimizations possible for cases with >20 outputs on a destination this sounds like too much of an edge case right now.
