Clearer messaging when the API is slow to respond

The status message shown during a stalled request has been reworded to be less alarming and more accurate. Previously the UI displayed "No response from API" in red, which implied a hard failure. It now reads "Waiting for API response", better reflecting that the client is still actively waiting rather than having given up.

The companion retry hint was also made lowercase for consistency: " · Retrying in " is now " · will retry in ".

Evidence

stalled-state component (search for "Waiting for API response" and "will retry in")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
