Actually, that's part of the bank now, not the wallet, as the bank
detects the failed pin.  So the wallet simply doesn't mark the reserve
creation as successful, but the error message should come completely
from the bank here.

Again, that's up to the bank. The bank can code a "try another pin" or
whatever. All the wallet cares about is: did we get the signal from the
bank that the reserve creation with amount X to mint Y was successful.
If so, we start to withdraw, if not, we simply do not.
