Comment (by leif):

 I've started working on this.

 [https://github.com/leif/tahoe-lafs/compare/master...1973-status-last-rx
 This branch] removes the Since and Announced columns, as well as the
 Service column (which I think only ever contains "storage") and replaces
 them with "Last RX" (using rref.getDataLastReceivedAt) and "Status".

 The Status column also says "Connected" or "Disconnected", which addresses
 #1961, but I don't really like seeing those words repeated so much. Maybe
 it would be better to have two separate tables for connected and
 disconnected servers?

 The timestamps displayed in these new columns are relative to the page
 render time but there are absolute timestamps in a tooltip. Is there any
 objection to changing the TIME_FORMAT on the absolute timestamps to ISO
 8601?
