feat(ui): HDMI refresh boost in the app, off only

The app gets its texts and the same rules as the menu: unticking Steam
Machine support or the kernel pin unticks it. It can't be turned on from
the app, as each step needs someone at the keyboard to confirm the picture.

   - Both are sub-options now, shown only while Steam Machine support is
     ticked. Unticking it unticks them; unticking the kernel pin unticks the
     HDMI refresh boost.
+  - In the app, HDMI refresh boost can only be turned off: each step needs
+    someone at the keyboard, so it's turned on from the menu in Konsole.
