wallet: Change CCrypter to use vectors with secure allocator

Change CCrypter to use vectors with secure allocator instead of buffers
on in the object itself which will end up on the stack. This avoids
having to call LockedPageManager to lock stack memory pages to prevent the
memory from being swapped to disk. This is wasteful.
