[Bug 1390136] [NEW] need a transition state for indicators reflecting laggy backends

 

Public bug reported:

spawned from efforts in bug 1336715

because the user's input toggle for airplane mode is both a reflection
of user intent & the state of the backend....and the backend is
unfortunately variable & lengthy to change (anywhere from 1 to ~10+
seconds sometimes) we need to have an intermediate/transition
state....e.g. toggle to airplane mode on....then animate somehow that
there's a transition happening, until it either fails/succeeds

comment from dizzypaty

Between the user’s action of toggling the airplane switcher on and/or
off and the backend updating the state, the indicator icon displayed on
the statusbar should be the following: network-idle.svg
