Element editor: optional alignment for static texts (#549)

Static texts (PartText) gain an optional alignment, exposed via the
existing AlignmentTextDialog behind a new "Alignement" button in the
static text editor:

- The horizontal part aligns the lines of a multi-line text relative
  to each other (centered block labels no longer need one hand-placed
  text per line).
- The full alignment defines the anchor: when the content or font
  changes later, the selected corner/center of the bounding rect keeps
  its place instead of always growing right/down from the top-left
  (same prepareAlignment/finishAlignment logic as DiagramTextItem).

Format: the <text> node takes the same optional Halignment/Valignment
attributes as dynamic_text, written only when they differ from the
historical top-left behaviour - existing .elmt files are untouched and
round-trip byte-identical. The saved x/y stay the baseline-left of the
text block in all cases; ElementPictureFactory only needs the line
alignment (the anchor is editor-side behaviour), so rendered elements
match the editor exactly.

German translations for the three new strings included (qet_de stays
complete, 2686/2686).

Verified headless: a project embedding a two-line text once with
Halignment=AlignHCenter and once without exports to SVG with the short
line centered under the long one (x 102.5 vs 126.5) in the aligned
block, and identical x for both lines in the legacy block. Editor-side
anchor behaviour follows the proven DiagramTextItem implementation but
was not manually exercised in the GUI yet.
