createwallet has changed list of arguments: createwallet "wallet_name" ( disable_private_keys blank "passphrase" avoid_reuse descriptors load_on_startup )
load_on_startup used to be an argument 5 but now has a number 6.
Both arguments 5 and 6 are boolean and it can confuse an user.
To prevent confusion if user is not aware about this breaking changes,
the RPC createwallet throws an exception if user trying to create descriptor wallet but has not mentioned load_on_startup.
This requirement can be removed when major amount of users updated to v21
