qt: Encourage users to use better ZCULL synchronization options

Browse Source 
- From looking at logs, users are not actually changing ZCULL settings because they do not realize how slow 'Precise' mode is.
  By marking precise as the 'slowest' mode, we can get the message across that better options exist.
- Also updates the tooltips with more useful information.
