Make PidginStatusBox manage its own connecting state.

Connected two accounts, disconnected and reconnected one and made sure the status box properly updated. Also forced an account to fail to connect and verified that the connecting message was shown and then hidden nearly immediately.

Description From Last Updated

If you disable it while it's connecting, then it'll neither reach the connected state nor be an error?

Do you need to catch signing-off in case the account is disabled before it's fully signed on?

    Do you need to catch signing-off in case the account is disabled before it's fully signed on?

    1. I tested the existing code with that, and it just lost track of the accounts state. In other words, it thought it was disabled but it was online. I didn't dig too much into it figuring we'd fix the bug at a later time.

    2. Should we leave the signal in here anyway, or a comment so we don't forget about it?

    3. I'm still not sure what signing-off does for us? We're tracking connections that are connecting only. Once they're connected they're removed from the list, so there's nothing to do in the signing-off handler. If a connection fails to connect then the connection-error handler gets called and it's removed from the list there.
