Merge #17135: gui: Make polling in ClientModel asynchronous

6b6be41c36 gui: Make polling in ClientModel asynchronous (João Barbosa)

Pull request description:

  After #14193 `ClientModel::updateTimer` can take some time, as such the GUI hangs, like #17112.

  Fixes this by polling in a background thread and updating the GUI asynchronously.

    ACK 6b6be41c36
  Sjors:
    Code review re-ACK 6b6be41; only replaced the scary cast with `{ timer->start(); }`
