[pdm-devel] [PATCH datacenter-manager 12/15] ui: dashboard: status row: make loading less jarring

by tracking the loading state not only via the last_refresh property,
but also from a reload message to a changing last_refresh value.

This means it now always shows the last refresh time if there was one
and only rotates the icon in that case.

This is much less jarring that a split second change of the text from
a date to 'now refreshing' back to a finished date.

While at it, remove the unused 'loading' property of the PdmDashboard
struct.
