### Is there an existing issue for this?

- [X] I have searched the existing issues

### Current behaviour

I randomly encountered this by loading a wallet created from master with an older version. I could trace it down to bd13dc2f46ea10302a928fcf0f53b7aed77ad260 (#26076), but I don't know descriptor wallets enough to understand what's going on (cc @Sjors @achow101).

### Expected behaviour

`bitcoind` starts, or at least tells me to use a later version if #26076 was a breaking change instead of corrupting `wallet.dat`.

### Steps to reproduce

(master, clean chain): 
`createwallet -regtest ""`
(v25.0rc2):
first `bitcoind -regtest` succeeds
then stop and restart the node: The second `bitcoind -regtest` leads to an InitError:
`Error: Error: Unable to expand wallet descriptor from cache`
now, the wallet cannot be loaded by either version.
