it would be useful to have:
- updated Pywallet that works "properly" with newer wallet.dat files and doesn't just suppress/ignore errors
- Python 3 compatibility would be a bonus, as Python 2 is now completely unsupported

These 2 are a must, plus these:
- clean that crazy source code, there's no reason for it to be 5000 lines long and to be that ugly
- change the --datadir and --wallet arguments
- kill (for now) the web interface and remove the twisted dependency (that would help reducing the code by the way)
- be more explicit about ecdsa being only optional

When do you think this will be available to download and run??

Honestly I don't know, you can follow the thread and I've put some issues on Github to track what I'm doing/planning
Right now I'm on the code cleaning + python 3 support

The __db.00x files are only internal files for Berkeley DB so not helpful
But yeah you can try the db_dump command (db-utils in apt) on your wallet, it should output a bunch of (sensitive!) hexadecimal data without errors
I just tested with an old wallet of mine, maybe from something like 2013, and it worked as expected
If it works for you then try deleting (backup them if you want but they aren't needed) the __db.00x files

Does the existence of the DB files indicate that Jack Jack found a valid/ actual bitcoin wallet on my device??
Thank you, and welcome back!

As Mek said, no
It just means that the Berkeley DB library created a bsddb environment in this folder, which actually means nothing
