Always show renew button in connection info #628

As a user I want an easy way to renew the authentication before the current session expires, so that I am free to choose the time of the renewal even some days before the expiry.

This could be solved by adding a button to the GUI, so that a user can click on it. In the CLI there exists already the command eduvpn-cli renew.

Hi, thanks for the issue. The renew button is implemented in the GUI app according to https://docs.eduvpn.org/server/v3/client-implementation-notes.html#expiry

So it will be shown in the last 24 hours, to not clutter the UI. I might consider always showing the button anyways or showing it under connection info or so. Any thoughts?

It would be nice to be able to configure the 24 hour threshold. But always showing it in the connection info would probably be enough.

Background: We have sessions that last for 90 days. So if you know you're going to a conference next week and your session expires the same week, you may want to renew it while you're in a trusted network environment.
