The issue is likely QgsVectorFileWriter.SaveVectorOptions() with no driverName 
set. There's 
no extension based guessing. Probably that the SaveVectorOptions inner class 
could have a 
"GPKG" default value for driverName, as it is the default driver name in other 
methods of 
qgsvectorfilewriter.h

There are some usage examples of QgsVectorFileWriter in
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/tests/src/python/test_qgsvectorfilewriter.py
  
(not of create() though)
