Describe the problem you'd like to have solved

Currently, users cannot initialize a node from a previously saved seed phrase.
When a user runs pactus-daemon init, it creates a new wallet using a new seed phrase.

Describe the ideal solution

We should add a new string option to the init command, for example: pactus-daemon init --seed "<12-words-seed>.
The bip39.IsMnemonicValid API can be used to confirm the seed phrase is valid.
If the --seed option isn't used, a new seed phrase can be generated.

Alternatives and current work-around

Currently, there is no easy work-around for this problem. The only alternative is for users to manually use pactus-wallet to recover their wallet, and then replace it with the default_wallet.
