Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#24800: lint: convert lint-python-mutable-default-parameters.sh to Python
e8e48fa82bdce3f0c1da0693148867befa221de7 Converted lint-python-mutable-default-parameters.sh to python (TakeshiMusgrave)

Pull request description:

  This converts one of the linter scripts to Python. Reference issue: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/24783

  The approach is to just call git grep using subprocess.run.

  Alternative approaches could be to use Python instead of git grep (I'm not sure how) or use ```pylint --disable=all --enable=W0102```, though that requires installation of pylint.
