qBittorrent version and Operating System

qBittorrent 4.1.6
openSUSE Leap 15.0

If on linux, libtorrent and Qt version

libtorrent-rasterbar 1.1.13
Qt 5.9.4

What is the problem

"Stalled" torrents are counted as "Active" although they are in fact not active. This also conflicts the actual correct number of active torrents shown on the left (in UI column "Status") which makes it additionally confusing.

What is the expected behavior

"Stalled" torrent should not be counted as "Active".

Steps to reproduce

Enable torrent queueing with settings:

Max active downloads: 20
Max active uploads: -1
Max active torrents: -1

Resume more than 20 torrents (300+ in my case)

What happens is: there are 5 "Stalled" and 15 "Downloading" torrents. This is inefficient because instead of trying to download next queued torrent (which may not be stalled), QBT simply wastes 5 slots.

Also related to #10681.
