Qt: propagate selection from main screen to dialog

Ensure that the selection in main screen is updated on refreshing
interfaces (InterfaceFrame::interfaceListChanged). Add additional
patches to ensure that selection changes from the main screen propagate
to the dialog and be careful to avoid infinite recursions.

Life of a signal for InterfaceFrame:

    ui->interfaceTree->selectionModel emits selectionChanged
    -> slot InterfaceFrame::interfaceTreeSelectionChanged
      -> emits InterfaceFrame::itemSelectionChanged
        -> slot MainWelcome::interfaceSelected
           -> emits MainWelcome::interfacesChanged
              -> slot CaptureInterfacesDialog::interfaceSelected
                 (updats dialog selection)

Life of a signal for CaptureInterfacesDialog:

    ui->interfaceTree emits itemSelectionChanged
    -> slot CaptureInterfacesDialog::interfaceSelected
       (emission of next signal because sender is ui->interfaceTree)
       -> emits CaptureInterfacesDialog::interfacesChanged
          -> slot InterfaceFrame::updateSelectedInterfaces
             (updates main screen selection)

This should probably be updated to model/view with shared selection
model in the future.
