```
MiniWallet's core method for creating txs (`create_self_transfer`)
right now always executes the `testmempoolaccept` RPC to check for
mempool validity or invalidity. In some test cases where we use
MiniWallet to create a huge number of transactions this can lead
to performance issues (e.g. feature_fee_estimation.py where the
execution time after MiniWallet usage almost doubled). Providing
the possibility to skip the mempool checks is a mitigation for
this.
```
Backport of core#24941.
The first commit is not backported because we diverged a lot from the core test and didn't convert it to MiniWallet yet, and the sign_tx function (which is not in our codebase yet) trivially needs the rehash anyway. So only this commit is relevant:
