GUI/QValidatedLineEdit: add validation control features and fix error highlighting

  - Added setAllowEmptyInput() to control whether empty input is considered valid
  - Added setAllowValidationWhileEditing() to enable real-time validation while typing
  - Fixed error_locations handling to only apply character-level formatting for validators that support it (BitcoinAddressEntryValidator), preventing incorrect highlighting of first character for standard validators
  - When validation while editing is enabled, markValid() now triggers checkValidity() instead of forcing valid state
