This adds the ability to have multiple concurrent connections to a single device. This is primarily useful when the network has multiple physical links for aggregated bandwidth. A single connection will never see a higher rate than a single link can give, but multiple connections are load-balanced over multiple links.
It is also incidentally useful for older multi-core CPUs, where bandwidth could be limited by the TLS performance of a single CPU core -- using multiple connections achieves concurrency in the required crypto calculations...

* lib/connections: Cache isLAN decision for later external access.
The check whether a remote device's address is on a local network
currently happens when handling the Hello message, to configure the
limiters. Save the result to the ConnectionInfo and pass it out as
part of the model's ConnectionInfo struct in ConnectionStats().
* gui: Use provided connection attribute to distinguish LAN / WAN.
Replace the dumb IP address check which didn't catch common cases and
actually could contradict what the backend decided. That could have
been confusing if the GUI says WAN, but the limiter is not actually
applied because the backend thinks it's a LAN.
Add strings for QUIC and relay connections to also differentiate
between LAN and WAN.
* gui: Redefine reception level icons for all connection types.
Move the mapping to the JS code, as it is much easier to handle
multiple switch cases by fall-through there.
QUIC is regarded no less than TCP anymore. LAN and WAN make the
difference between levels 4 / 3 and 2 / 1:
{TCP,QUIC} LAN --> {TCP,QUIC} WAN --> Relay LAN --> Relay WAN -->
Disconnected.
