introduce a new StartShutdown() function, which starts a thread with Shutdown() if no GUI is used and calls uiInterface.QueueShutdown() if a GUI is used / all direct uiInterface.QueueShutdown() calls are replaced with Shutdown() - this ensures a clean GUI shutdown, even when catching a SIGTERM and allows the BitcoinGUI destructor to get called (which fixes a tray-icon issue and keeps the tray-icon until Bitcoin-Qt exits)
