Info tab doesn't show current server #118

If the internals of SDL saw a down server and used getRandomServer() to connect to a new one, the GUI info tab doesn't show the correct server. This is confusing for users and makes dev debugging confusing as well.

Also from #86:

If stickyServer is set to true in "Information about Hush" it displays always "False".

From .config/Hush/SilentDragonLite.conf:
[connection]
server=https://lite.hush.land

[options]
...
stickyServer=true

@onryo thanks for finding that other issue. I think there are 2 bugs, one with stickyServer=true and one with it false. But they are related.

Latest commit on dev a080d0ca80 should now update the current server when it changes. Note that it only updates when the rest of GUI data updates, so it may still show the old server until the next refresh of data.

@onryo does the latest code fix this issue?

No. @duke

[connection]
server=https://lite.hush.community

[options]
allowcheckupdates=true
allowfetchprices=true
currency_name=false
stickyServer=true
theme_name=Dark

@onryo ok, to clarify, I meant "does it show the current server even when it selects a random server when a server is down?" I haven't tried to fix the bug with stickyServer yet

It displays the initial server, the actual connection to the server is not visible in "Current Server".
