crecord: move status window text calculation to a separate method

We will do some changes there in the next patches. The new method would also
be the "source of truth" of the content of the status window (so if the
status window needs more than 2 lines, it would be calculated from the new
method).

Also, moved "statuswin.refresh" to make the code compact and easier to read.
