Generate wallet

Generates a new blockchain wallet of a specified type (master or transit).

When creating a transit wallet, you may optionally provide a master_wallet_address to explicitly link the new wallet to a specific master wallet within the project. If this field is omitted, the system will automatically assign a master wallet based on the default logic.
