Dolphin shows the size of directories by listing their contents, which
for some users might cause unwanted load on the file system.
Depending on the size of the subdirectories in question and how the
storage is accessed, this might cause noticeable delays and even
freezing.
This commit adds a new option under "View -> Content Display" that
enables users to set "Folder size:" to "No size", completely disabling
directory size counting. Directory size counting is still enabled by
default.
As a third option for "Folder size" is added, the DirectorySizeCount
boolean setting is replaced with a DirectorySizeMode enum setting. The
old setting is migrated using a kconf_update script.
FEATURE: 477187
GUI:
Since it actually adds padding on both left and right sides,
"Side Padding" might be more accurate.
This change is also propagated to variable and method names.
BUG: 453172
Summary: After several resurfaces of GUI the current docs are not up-to-date.
Test Plan: I used an impression from D11382 to write this. Tested with checkXML5. An updated screenshot is needed.

Summary:
Generally "Properties" refers to information about a selected file. However Dolphin also
uses the word "Properties" in the phrase "View Properties", which refers to the display
style of the view. Since "properties" is a fairly esoteric and technical term to most
users, it would probably be wise to avoid using it in multiple contexts.
Accordingly, this patch changes "view properties" to "view display style".
Test Plan: Look at the settings window, hamburger menu, view menu, and docbook

Summary: KDE apps generally (ha ha) have their {nav General} page at the top of the list, so it's the first thing the user sees when they open the {nav Settings} window, but Dolphin is an exception. It puts the {nav General} page //last!// This patch makes Dolphin consistent with other KDE apps by moving the {nav General} page up to the top.
