Alerts on the first time a software is connecting to a new host / ip #2220

Description

@GBrunheri

What would you like to add or change?:

Keep a record of known hosts and softwares that have reached for the internet since the program's install(not 10 min), and have a dismissable pop-up on the screen corner informing about it and giving some info about the host and process it originated, having the pop-up vanish automatically after a few seconds, but still having buttons on the pop-up to take action such as block the connections, or allow (but w/o needing to take action, using the default action instead). maybe kill the process too.

Also by having a dashboard showing which processes and hosts met their first connection most recently to review and define if the computer isn't compromised and safe to use

Why do you and others need this?:

It brings a whole new layer of monitoring to Portmaster, since it alerts you whenever that first connection happens, allowing for quick response to a threat.
