Move GetStakeWeight() off the UI thread by caching in the staking
miner thread. Replace blocking LOCK(cs_vNodes) with TRY_LOCK in
clientmodel and staking icon updates. Fix out-of-sync label getting
stuck when disconnected. Add daemon bootstrap and faster IBD pipeline.

- Daemon: add -bootstrap flag to download chain files from server on startup
- Qt: bootstrap prompt shows every launch with "Don't show this again" checkbox
- IBD: reduce pipeline refill interval from 1000 to 100 blocks for faster sync
- Add bootstrap.o to daemon makefiles (mingw + unix)

Peer connectivity (small network optimizations):
- Reduce hardcoded seed fallback delay from 30s to 10s
- Reduce peer retry interval from 600s to 120s
- Lower staking minimum peers from 3 to 1
- Relay addr messages to all connected peers instead of just 2
UI responsiveness:
- Add progress reporting to ScanForWalletTransactions (every 10K blocks)
- Use TRY_LOCK in WalletModel::pollBalanceChanged to avoid blocking UI
- Use TRY_LOCK in TransactionTablePriv::refreshWallet with retry
Auto-bootstrap:
- Add bootstrap.h/cpp with HTTP download via boost::asio
- On first run, prompt user to download blockchain snapshot from
bootstrap.cryptographic-triangles.org directly into data directory
- Downloads filelist.txt manifest then each file with progress dialog
- Falls back to IP 194.233.88.206 if DNS fails
- Gracefully continues to P2P sync if bootstrap unavailable

Shows an intro dialog on first launch letting users choose where to store
blockchain data. Saves the choice in QSettings so it only appears once.
Styled to match the existing Triangles dark theme.
