rust-electrum-client Fix unreproducible tests

          > The tests are CRAZY! They are even not reproducible. They pretty much ping a live server `electrum.blockstream.info:50001`. So I added the tests for the fees to make sure that the fee is `> 0`.

Maybe we should switch to use a local regtest electrs that we pre-populate with a certain amount of transactions and blocks to make them ~reproducible? Or, we could consider building a mock Electrum server, which shouldn't be hard to do? Especially given the confusion around fee rate conversion it would be good to test it properly in CI?

I do like the idea of using a local regtest electrs, by using electrsd for example.

I also think it'll be pretty much straightforward if we choose to use our bdk_testenv crate instead of trying to rebuild everything from scratch again with electrsd.

I'll work on this, as it's better not to rely on testing on a live instance, and use a regtest environment instead.

Use corepc-node as a dev dependency. It is in a pretty good state once it was moved to rust-bitcoin org.
