Issue: [BUG] Wires are not checked when computing the `expval` of a `Hamiltonian` with `shots=None`
### Expected behavior

The attached code should raise the error:
```
pennylane.wires.WireError: Did not find some of the wires (0, 1) on device with wires (0,).
```

### Actual behavior

It runs and returns an incorrect value.

### Additional information

This error is raised only in the `Device.map_wires` method. I guess that in this example this method is never called, and thus the error is never raised.

Should we do a wire check at the beginning of the execution?

### Source code

```shell
import pennylane as qml

device = qml.device("default.qubit", wires=1)

H = 1.5 * qml.PauliZ(0) @ qml.PauliZ(1) + 0.3 * qml.PauliX(1)

@qml.qnode(device)
def circuit():
    return qml.expval(H)

print(circuit())
```


### Tracebacks

_No response_

### System information

Pull request description: map_wires in expval(H) to ensure device wires used
**Context:**
See #3228. default.qubit wouldn't ensure Hamiltonian wires existed on the device before measuring the expectation value of it.

**Description of the Change:**
Try to map the Hamiltonian's wires to the device's wires on `default.qubit` when `shots=None` upon measuring expval.

**Benefits:**
`expval` will raise a WireError as expected when the device doesn't have the wires expected by the Hamiltonian.

**Possible Drawbacks:**
N/A

**Related GitHub Issues:**
Fixes #3228
