The prefixes of a collection's folders live in a qet_labels.xml that so
far could only be edited by hand, and a hand-edited file is easy to
break: one extra </category> and the file stops being well formed, which
the lookup answers with "no prefix at all". Labels then degrade
silently, without any error anywhere - the file is simply ignored. Add
a way to edit it from the settings.
- "Configurer les préfixes…" next to the user collection path opens
PrefixConfigurationDialog, which lists every folder of that
collection, subfolders included, one line edit each, with "Tout
déplier"/"Tout replier" and OK/Abbrechen. It writes on OK only :
cancelling leaves the collection exactly as it was, and an emptied
field drops the <prefix> again so the folder goes back to inheriting
its parent's.
- QetLabelsFile owns the reading, scanning, structure building and
writing of the file. prefixFromLabelFile() moves there unchanged from
assignvariables.cpp as prefixForPath(), so the lookup used by label
assignment and the one used by the dialog are one piece of code.
- Entries whose folder no longer exists on disk are offered as
Conserver or Supprimer and only applied on OK.
- An unparsable file is copied to qet_labels.xml.bak first, and the
dialog then reports the line and column of the syntax error, with
"Corriger le fichier" as the default choice - such a file may be one
forgotten tag away from being valid - and rebuilds the whole
structure only when "Reconstruire" is picked. A broken file that
cannot be backed up is refused rather than overwritten.
The scan reads non-hidden directories recursively in name order,
without following symlinks. A collection without any subfolder has
nothing to configure and says so instead of opening an empty dialog.
Tests: a standalone harness kept outside the tree (84 checks :
structure, inheritance, explicit empty prefix, orphan handling, broken
file, wrong root element, broken file whose backup cannot be written,
reload after save) and the dialog driven offscreen (29 checks,
including "reject creates no file"). ctest 27/28, the failing
tst_menubarkeyboard being the headless F10 test, unrelated to this.
The new strings are French source strings like the rest of the code;
the .ts files are left to the translation update.
