Use BIP39/BIP44 for new account #207

@Tbaut

Description

@Tbaut

For historical reasons, Parity products use a non standard logic and words dictionary for account recovery phrases. The Parity recovery phrases are not compatible with wallets such as Metamask, Jaxx or MyCrytpo.

We should:

  • Still support legacy parity seed phrase for account recovery
  • Support BIP39 recovery phrases
  • Implement and use BIP39 for new account generation.
  • Use the 1st derivated address for creation and recovery by default (no choice given to the user for now)
