#2797: explain two timestamps on WUI server listings

-------------------------------+------------------------
 I loaded the current "welcome page", and the server columns have two
 separate (relative) timestamps.

 The first is in the "Nickname" column, where it shows server nickname,
 long-form server ID (v0-base32stuff), a green/red checkmark/X connected-
 status indicator, and this timestamp.

 The second is in the "Last RX" column.

 I think the tooltips (which currently just show the corresponding absolute
 UTC timestamps) should also have a few words about what the timestamp is
 referring to. Based on the methods being called, I *think* the first one
 indicates the last time we established a connection to the server, and the
 second indicates the last time we've heard anything from that server, but
 I might be wrong.

 For reference, the first timestamp is using
 `IServer.get_last_connect_time()`, and the second is using
 `IServer.get_last_received_data_time()`.
