wallet2 / simplewallet: Must opt-in to create '.address.txt' files for new wallets

Previously, a file containing the unencrypted Monero address was
created by default in the wallet's directory. This file might pose
as a privacy risk. The creation of this file is now opt-in and can
be enabled by providing

    --create-address-file
