Merge bitcoin-core/gui#345: Connection Type Translator Comments

4832737c7dcc87afea5e1e88945ec311417aa876 qt: connection type translator comments (Jarol Rodriguez)

Pull request description:

  This PR introduces Qt translator comments for `Connection Type` strings in `guiutil.cpp` as well as `rpcconsole.cpp`.

  This is an alternate implementation of the idea presented in the last three commits of #289. It is especially inspired by commit 842f4e834dfe5fd2786a5092f78ea28da1b36e4f.

  Per [Qt Dev Notes](https://github.com/bitcoin-core/bitcoin-devwiki/wiki/Developer-Notes-for-Qt-Code), it is better to not break up strings when not necessary. This way we preserve the full context for translators.
