Cables are drawn line objects (toolbar button next to the auto
break/reconnect button, click-move-click, right click cancels), not
components. The type comes from a CSV catalog following the material
list pattern (designation, cores, core colours, editable through the
entry dialog with "Nouvelle entrée" / "Modifier l'entrée").
Each core is bound to the wire its colour label stands on, and the
cable reference is generated per core and written into the Conductor
entry via Conductor::setCableReference(label, cable uuid, slot). The
conductor entry is where it has to live because the terminal strip
plan (Klemmenplan) consumes it in the next step.
Numbering: "Cables" rule under Programmeinstellungen/Neues
Projekt/Nummerierung auto (mirrored in project properties), literal
"W" fallback without a rule, French gate dialog when no rule exists,
Nummerierung menu with the renumber dialog (preferred axis, per-folio
counter, rule and counter state written back, hand-typed names ask,
whole-project scope).
Also included: label block and under-line texts with per-text font and
alignment plus the material-list cell margins, free-core placement and
right-click removal, claim questions for wires of other cables,
multi-selection drag as one undo step, type change with confirmation,
cross-references for type "Cable" (%f-%l%c, own font, clickable links
in exported PDFs), report propagation of the cable definition,
Listes menu (table of contents, material list, terminal strip manager,
terminal generator plugin, cable list), cable list with freely
selectable columns (installation/localisation of cable, start and end,
Blatt start/end, length, used cores...), CSV export dialog with column
pick and preview in the Projekt menu, script API (addTable kind
"cable_list", exportCableList) and a unit test for the type catalog.
Showing a selected conductor's properties in the selection-properties
dock is now a preference, on the General page under Appearance:
"Afficher les propriétés d'un conducteur sélectionné dans le panneau
Propriétés de la sélection". It is off by default, so selecting a
conductor does what it did before unless the user turns it on.
This replaces the View-menu toggle, which defaulted to on; that entry
is dropped in the merge with master. Same setting key
(diagrameditor/conductor_properties_panel).

Addresses the testing feedback on the conductor selection-properties
prototype:
1. Edits were never applied. The dock drives every editor through
setLiveEdit(true), which each editor overrides to connect its field
changes to apply(); ConductorPropertiesEditorWidget didn't override it,
so the call was a no-op. Implement setLiveEdit() to connect the hosted
ConductorPropertiesWidget's controls (commit-style signals) to apply().
A m_updating guard suppresses the signals emitted while the widget is
loaded programmatically, so a partial mid-load state is never committed.
2. Clicking a conductor's text label showed nothing, because the label is
a ConductorTextItem, not a Conductor. Map it to its parentConductor() in
the editor factory, mirroring the double-click-the-label dialog behaviour.
3. The panel sat at a small size hint with empty space below it. Give the
editor an Expanding vertical size policy (and a minimum height) so it
fills the dock like the other editors.
