Description
This new "server" icon which was added in #1335 currently shows status of the Reactotron core server: stopped, port unavailable, or started.
If you click the icon (if port unavailable) it'll refresh Reactotron.
Instead of that, I'd like to introduce a new diagnostic screen for Reactotron. The icon can remain the same, but it'll actually navigate to this diagnostic screen rather than refresh Reactotron.
It should show the current port, server status, and a "reload Reactotron" button.
Stretch goal: add other Reactotron state stats there.

Research direction
Start by locating the server icon and click handler introduced in #1335, then trace where the current port and server status are read. Add a diagnostic screen reachable from the icon with the port, status, and a reload Reactotron button; verify that clicking the icon opens the screen instead of refreshing directly.
