 Upgrade/Install: Avoid creating nonce during installation.

 When installing and using database-saved salts, wp_create_nonce() causes
 database errors as wp_salt() attempts to insert into the not-yet-created
 options table. Since authentication isn't available during installation,
 we can safely skip creating a nonce.

 Props nullvariable, pento, dd32.
 Fixes #39047.
