Title:
  Merge transfers, queued files and finished files

Status in DC++:
  In Progress
Status in Linux DC++:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I think that having downloads and queued files in different places is
  counterintuitive from the user's point of view, since they are both
  things you want to download. The only difference being, the first are
  already being downloaded and the second aren't yet.

  Dcsharp handles this gracefully, and I propose using a similar layout:

  -Transfers shouldn't be shown in a pane but in their own section,
  together with queues. Using an icon before the filename should be
  enough to tell them apart, e.g.: a downward arrow for downloads, an
  upward arrow for uploads and a pause or clock icon for queued items.

  -Everything should be based on expanders: the top level shows folders
  or individual files and from there you can perform transfer-related
  operations, like removing a file from the queue. Expanding those, the
  actual connections are shown. From there you can perform actual user
  operations, like giving a user a slot or removing him from the queue.

  I'm attaching a quick mockup.
