Build "wallet-lite" which is remote-only

Windows users are often plagued by interference from AV software when trying to download and install the Oxen wallet. Some code in the wallet package is being flagged as malware, likely the oxend code that syncs the blockchain. Building a remote-only version of the wallet will (hopefully) avoid this issue, along with removing the need for n00bs to figure out the difference between local-only, local+remote, and remote-only.

I assume simply removing the still present mining code would be sufficient to stop triggering AV. Has anybody done an "A/B" test with this?
