Give the sync progress bar an expanding size policy and add it to the status bar with stretch so it occupies the available horizontal space in the existing single-row layout. This fixes the visual truncation reported in bitcoinknots#177, where the bar appeared to fill only from the far left toward the middle.

Fixes #177.
Keep the existing single-row status bar layout and make the sync progress bar expand across the available space, so it reads like a normal left-to-right progress bar.
Root cause:
Change:
This keeps the patch tightly scoped and avoids the previously discussed two-row redesign.
