docs: Return the connection status, both locally and remotely.
  
          The local connection status is a dictionary that gives:
          * the count of multiple queries sent to the server.
          * the count of single queries sent to the server.
          * the count of actions sent to the server.
          * the count of actions executed successfully by the server.
          * the count of actions queued to go to the server.
  
          The remote connection status includes whether the server is live,
          as well as data about version and build.  The server data is
          cached, unless the remote flag is specified.
  
          :param remote: whether to query the server for its latest status
          :return: tuple of status dicts: (local, server).
