syncthing: Hide unnecessary security warning

- Hide the warning 'The Syncthing admin interface is configured to allow
remote access without a password. ... '. This warning is unnecessary because
we are using authentication through Apache.

- Hide the usage reporting notification by declining reporting, if the user
has not made a choice yet.

- Call add_user_to_share_group() in setup() before starting syncthing to
avoid another syncthing daemon restart.

- Add a functional test for hidden notification messages.

- Functional tests: Improve the method to check if the javascript
loading process is complete.

Closes #1581

Tests performed:
- The syncthing app is installed successfully on Debian testing
- All syncthing tests pass on Debian stable and testing
