Disable webui functionality based on the partner network status
Abstract
Some operations require the channel's partner to be online (e.g. sending a transfer, withdraw). If the node is known to be offline the ui should not allow these operations to be performed
Motivation
Better usability, otherwise the operation above will timeout, which may take a little while.
Specification
Depends on: https://github.com/raiden-network/raiden/issues/2016 Once the above is done the webui should just query for the state of the partners regularly and change the state of the UI accordingly (disabling buttons for the operations above if the node goes offline, or enabling if it comes online)
This seems like a mixture of work to be done on both Raiden and the WebUI. Raiden needs to provide an API (New or existing) to return channel status including the partner network availability. The webUI has to adapt the new information it gets to implement the above.
