esp32/modnetwork: Fix isconnected() when using static IP config.

Currently <WLAN>.isconnected() always returns True if a static IP is set,
regardless of the state of the connection.

This patch introduces a new flag 'wifi_sta_connected' which is set in
event_handler() when GOT_IP event is received and reset when DISCONNECTED
event is received (unless re-connect is successful).  isconnected() now
simply returns the status of this flag (for STA_IF).

The pre-existing flag misleadingly named 'wifi_sta_connected" is also
renamed to 'wifi_sta_connect_requested'.

Fixes issue #3837
