The Renogy Wanderer states that it is optimized for 10A, 12V/24V batteries. What would happen if it was connected to a battery pack containing one 3.6V 18650 battery such as this?

Do not do this. The 18650 would promptly catch fire and / or explode.
In theory it could maybe charge a bank of 18650s set up to be 12/24V but the charge controller expects different power characteristics normally seen in lead/acid batteries, so it’ll probably still blow them up. Please use appropriate charge controllers for your batteries, and do not attempt to use the wrong one.
Thank you
