Adjusting limits was made based on the belief that "forced" torrents (internally used for prefetching metadata)
are still under limits, but ignore only the queue. This is not really the case. "Forced" torrents ignore the limits
like "maximum active torrents/downloads", so adjusting limits is not required, and what's more, it really causes the
problem of unexpectedly activated previously queued torrents when adding some magnet using "Add new torrent" dialog.

Use more appropriate container (QList) for resume data queue buffer.
QVector in Qt5 has poor performance of the first element taking operation,
which is used to process the resume data queue. In Qt6, QVector is just an
alias for QList, so there was no problem there.

Such helpers do not make practical sense, since they can be trivially implemented on top of the base interface, but at the same time they can lead to undesirable consequences when some calling code requires slightly different behavior than another.

We don't really need to get currently used settings pack in order to apply changes to session settings. It is enough to apply settings pack that contains only updated settings.

This eases the usage of port forwarder as the caller code doesn't need
to store previous used port and now can rely on port forwarder doing
all the hard work.
PR #17967.
Add a UI option for "Use proxy for hostname lookup" option and plumb
it into libtorrent's settings_pack.proxy_hostnames option. This is
available for SOCKS5 and HTTP proxies, and defaults to true, which
is the previous functionality. Hostname lookups can be forced to be
local by unchecking this option, which can aid compatibility with
certain non-compliant proxy servers.

When shutting down, instead of waiting for all types of alert from
libtorrent, now it only waits for specific alert types. This potentially
help shorten the shutdown waiting time.
Because sometime (when your save and download path are on different drives, when your disk drive is super busy, ...) move operations can stack up, I add this "Moving" status filter so you can see in a blink of the eye which torrents are in a move state.
