[Feature Request]: Move the Node selection menu to top bar and tidy the process of adding/changing nodes please. #951

Description

@frazzmatazz

Hi, I was pointed here from Discord to make a suggestion about how the app handles changing between multiple nodes and adding nodes.

Since all the other tabs (messages, nodes, map, channels, settings) are node specific (PS, it's been pointed out the messages get merged, thats fine for me), can we have the screen that selects node above this row of tabs? Maybe drop down from the //\ Meshtastic bar.

Can we list the nodes by long name? Rather than the random BT name they got when first paired.

Can it remember IP nodes, and list by name once connected. They currently need entered each time, and unintuitively you have to click the grey "IP Address" bar above to make it add it.

I would also suggest moving the whole "radio config" menu to the gear icon where the node selection currently is.

The initial discord discussion is here:
