Invalid behavior of the "Connect through SOCKS proxy" checkbox #2887

Steps to reproduce:
1. Run Bitcoin-Qt with limited NET_IPV4. (for ex. with the "-onlynet=tor" option).
2. Go to Options-Network.
3. Check the "Connect through SOCKS proxy" checkbox and press Apply.
4. The checkbox becomes unchecked, but the option "fUseProxy" in the qt-settings file (~/.config/Bitcoin/Bitcoin-Qt.conf) now has value "true".
5. Restart Bitcoin-Qt without any limitations (without options).
6. Go to Options-Network.
7. The checkbox is checked (because "fUseProxy=true").
8. Try to uncheck it, but it becomes checked again after pressing Apply. There is no way to uncheck it now.
The same behavior appears under Windows too.

I guess the problem caused by this line https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/0.8.3/src/qt/optionsmodel.cpp#L168

This should be tried out with my rework pull... #2612 (need to rebase it).

Should be fixed with the new options dialog by @diapolo
