qml: stop showing seconds in tx history timestamps
Reduces the precision of the date field in the qml transaction history
list to minutes. Seconds don't seem very useful in practice and add
clutter to the UI. This adapts the behaviour to the Qt GUI.
What changed, and why it matters
This commit is a minor user-interface tweak for Electrum's QML (mobile-style) transaction history. It removes seconds from displayed timestamps, showing times only to the nearest minute, matching the older Qt desktop GUI. There is no security relevance.
No action required. This is a cosmetic UI change with no security implications.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The change modifies electrum/gui/qml/qetransactionlistmodel.py. It converts two helper methods to static methods and changes strftime format strings from %H:%M:%S to %H:%M across all date sections. This is purely presentational; no transaction data, validation, cryptography, or network behavior is affected.
