TxEditor: update dynamically based on swap transport

Update the TxEditor (onchain tab) if Send change to lightning is enabled
and the swap transport changes. Connect to swap transport if send change
to lightning gets enabled or if it is enabled and the TxEditor gets
opened.
This allows to nicely show the swap fees without blocking the UI to wait
until the swap manager gets initialized.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a user-interface improvement for Electrum's transaction editor. It makes the fee display update automatically when a 'send change to Lightning' swap connection is being set up, so the user isn't left waiting with a frozen window. There is no direct evidence in the commit of a security vulnerability being fixed.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal UX/refactor commit. If auditing submarine-swap security, review the underlying electrum/submarine_swaps.py transport and swap logic separately, as this commit does not modify it.
