Added connecting status, show status after node loaded #19

Show connecting status on startup of S7in/S7out node. Solved: If PLC is not connected during node-red ui load, the S7in/S7out node will not show any status until the tcp timeout occurs which will take several minutes.

Hi Carsten

Great addition! I'm fixing a connection leak we can have on unstable connections, then I'll merge your PR :)
