- Add automatic reconnection when connection to NUT server is lost - Implement proper teardown of old PyNUTClient instances - Use specific exceptions (socket.error, ConnectionError, EOFError, OSError, PyNUT.PyNUTError) - Prevent multiple simultaneous reconnection attempts - Add 'was_online' flag to track connection state changes - Tested and confirmed working on both Qt5 and Qt6 Closes: networkupstools#3509 Signed-off-by: Programer <developer.sorli@gmail.com>

Seems to work. I found a host where Py2Gtk could still run (NetBSD 9.2), connected to a NUT server from NUT-Monitor, and stopped the server. Within a few seconds, the client status bar was cycling the reconnection messages every couple of seconds: and it was satisfied soon after I started the data server back: NOTE: The status bar message remains "Reconnected" even after a couple of hours, as opposed to "Connected..." seen initially. Double-checked that at least Py3Qt5 variant worked similarly at least once, more details in #3523. Kudos to @developersorli for the original work on Python3 versions, and IntelliJ Junie for porting it to Python2 :) |

Replicate the solution from #3523; testing needed
Should help UI on antique platforms that can not for some reason be updated; in fact I currently struggle to find testbeds with GUI that would be so far behind ;)
