Restoration UX is clunky #60

Description

Currently, restoring a connection from a recovery key requires steps that are probably not intuitive to end users (i.e., clicking "I don't have an invite code" from the welcome screen then choosing "Select file..." under the "Import from Recovery Key" section of the subsequent manual config dialog). In addition, failing to enter the correct passphrase when importing an encrypted recovery key requires that users re-import it to try again (instead of simply re-typing the passphrase), while succeeding in entering the correct passphrase still requires an additional step (i.e., of clicking "OK") that may not be obvious.

Accordingly, the availability of the "restore" feature should be communicated more clearly, while the process of importing/decrypting a recovery key should require fewer steps and introduce fewer opportunities for error and frustration.
