Research direction

Start in ui/opensnitch/dialogs/events/config.py at TAB_ADDRS and compare its display_fields setting with the Hosts, Applications, Ports and Users tabs. Update the Addresses configuration to use the translatable What alias, then verify that the tab displays "What" consistently in English and through translations.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In the stats window, the Addresses tab shows the header "what" (lowercase),
while Hosts, Applications, Ports and Users show the "What" header, which is
also translatable.

The Addresses tab uses "display_fields": "*"
(ui/opensnitch/dialogs/events/config.py, TAB_ADDRS), so the raw DB column
name is displayed instead of the COL_STR_WHAT alias used by the other tabs.
It's visible in English too, and it can't be fixed by translations.

Found while testing the Polish translation (#1673).
