Returns the account descriptor that can be imported in third party
wallets that support descriptors.

See https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/descriptors.md.

This is especially important to be able to export/import Taproot
accounts, where the `xpub` alone can easily be confused for a legacy
p2pkh account. The descriptor contains the complete derivation info.

We use the descriptors-go package to compute the descriptor.
descriptors-go is a Go wrapper around rust-miniscript, the goto Rust
library for descriptors/miniscript.

Closing until we decide how we want to treat the .wasm binary.
