No.

Can Steam Wallet funds be gifted, withdrawn or transferred to another Steam account?

No, wallet funds cannot be moved or withdrawn to a bank account.

It's store credit … not actual money.

Far as I know, this is the only way, as far as taking money back from your Steam account :

Steam Wallet Refunds

You may request a refund for Steam Wallet funds within fourteen days of purchase if they were purchased on Steam and if you have not used any of those funds.

Not really a "withdrawal", but it's the only way I know you can get money out of your account, under very specific circumstances.

Not directly, no.
You could buy some game as a gift, then gift it to another user in exchange for that user transferring you money. In effect it would be as if you made a withdrawal.
Ofc in practice it would have to be with someone you have a mutual trust with. Maybe an IRL buddy.

That would potentially flag the account for gifting abuse.

Could be, dk how that works.
I was assuming it wasn't about huge amounts of money or numbers transactions.

They have been cracking down on what looks like suspicious gifting activity as of late.

Yes, from what we have seen here in the forums recently, Valve seems to be stepping it up a bit, in terms of gifting abuse, so it's best to steer clear of any possible issues with gifting to get money like that. It does answer the question the OP presents, yes, but just not a great idea.
