This improves consistency among wording. More clarity is achieved
by avoiding technical terms or terms with multiple meanings.
Notable changes:
-Specify full settings path: "Configure Dolphin > View > General"
in Show Hidden Files whatsThis
-Mention setting to hide files with application/x-trash MIME type
in "Show Hidden Files" whatsThis
-Mention Split View mode in "Copy/Move to Other View" whatsThis
-Reword "Activate Tab" actions to "Go to Tab" (Next, Previous,
Last, numbers)
-Add "Last Tab" iconText, consistent with "Next Tab" & "Previous
Tab"

"in focus" visually

clarify tooltip text
-Reword "objects" to "items" in whatsThis texts
-Reword "find bar" to "search bar" in Search button whatsThis text
This MR fixes some issues related to RTL scripts:

BUG: 449493
UpdateItemStatesThread kept a pointer reference to m_plugin whose
lifetime was tied to VersionControlObserver parents.
On application shutdown it could happen the thread is still running when
the Observer is destroyed.
Make the plugin pointer a weak reference, allowing to stop the thread
when the plugin is gone.

For now this just includes the settings for the information panel.
Prior to this commit the options for configuring the information panel
were only exposed via right clicking the information panel. This was
not discoverable enough. Our guidelines also state that much. See:
https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Design/Frequently_Discussed_Topics#Context_menus_are_not_enough
The settings page is missing the "Configure" button for the entries in
the information panel, which can only be found in the context menu.
This is because I thought it would be weird to move it to the settings
page. (The "configure" button is used to select the entries for the
information panel)

Prior to this commit the test failed because it expected a generic "inode-directory" icon for directories like "home" or "tmp" even though we have more specialised and nicer icons for these directories. I assume the test only used to pass because we were actually always using generic and therefore unhelpful icons for tabs.
This commit removes the hard-coded expectation of the "inode-directory" icon and instead compares the tab icon with the return value of KIO::iconNameForUrl(tabUrl).
The upstream Breeze variant colorizes based on the user's color scheme
which was lost when Dolphin switched to using its org.kde.dolphin icon.

When a bar is toggled visible this usually happens because the
user might want to use its functionality now. However, if bars
appear without animation or at a location the user is not
currently looking at, they might not notice that they have appeared
at all.
An animation makes it more likely that the user notices the change
and can then use the newly made visible component.
Another reason for animations for showing or hiding of components
is that it can be disorienting for users when panels or bars
suddenly appear or disappear without animation. There is no visible
movement then, so the user might not know what happened if they
didn't concentrate or blink at that moment. The newly appearing or
disappearing component might also displace other components which
can make it difficult to find what one was just looking at.
These bars animate now after this change:
- Search panel
- Filter bar
- Status bar
This is implemented by extracting the animation code from
SelectionMode::TopBar into a new abstract base class
AnimatedHeightWidget. This class is now also used in
SelectionMode::BottomBar and the animating code there was removed.
These bars are left in Dolphin that stay without animation:
- Menu bar (Would probably need to be implemented in KXmlGui)
- Tool bar (Would probably need to be implemented in KXmlGui)
- Tab bar (Needs a different appraoch because it already inherits
QTabBar and therefore can not inherit AnimatedHeightWidget)
Special folders include: search, trash, recents, timeline
Not including Downloads, although we have a custom view when "remember
for each folder" is on.
Rational: These folders really need the custom view. So even if the
user selects a global view for all "normal" folders, s/he probably
still want a custom view for special folders.
