Subject: [PATCH] Enable auto-bootstrap for GUI (Windows) wallets

Previously the bootstrap auto-download was guarded by #ifndef QT_GUI,
meaning the Windows Qt wallet would never auto-bootstrap on fresh installs.
This left GUI users stuck at block ~570 during IBD with no way to recover.

Now both GUI and daemon builds automatically download bootstrap data from
bootstrap.cryptographic-triangles.org when no blockchain data is found.
Progress is shown in the GUI status bar via uiInterface.InitMessage.
