Fixes #1497 ZCA-009 by restricting data exporting to user defined folder.

Previously the RPC interface allowed z_exportwallet, backupwallet and
dumpwallet to write data to an arbitrary filename.  ZCA-009 demonstrates
how this is vulnerable.  The resolution is to only allow data to
written when the -exportdir has been configured.  Also filenames are
restricted to alphanumeric characters.
