Add a Full Width option and a Fixed Size option.

This removes the current behavior of adapting to tab name, i.e folder name.

<content type='text'>
This MR adds options to keep tab bar always visible and to remove the close button from tabs.

MR !269 cannot be reopened because the branch it is based on is no longer accessible.  Per @meven direction, I am opening this new MR.

Note: Defaults to current defaults.

![dolphin-config](/uploads/342914c6067f69dfe7146a3c938e2083/dolphin-config.png){width=734 height=597}

![dolphin-main](/uploads/2da396c36ca5074829123511f54968cc/dolphin-main.png){width=762 height=580}

Criticisms of previous MR:

* Options should take effect immediately when users apply new settings, rather than requiring restart.

  * Done.

* Concern about potential maintenance burden.

  * I've been maintaining some version of this patch for ~4-5 years, available via [aur/dolphin-tabopts](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dolphin-tabopts) and Chaotic AUR.  During that time, only two major rebases were needed.  First was what appeared to be automated linting and reformatting.  Second was when the preferences system was reorganized.
  
    Had the patch been integrated in the code base prior to those refactors, the first would have required zero maintainer intervention (assuming automated reformatting).  The second would have required minimal effort beyond what was needed for the refactor itself.

    Every defect I've noticed during that time were also present in the unpatched package.

* There is no demand or desire for this feature.

  * Equivalent settings are available in various apps across operating systems and desktop environments, including several KDE apps, such as akregator, kate, konsole (confirmed in 25.12.1).

  * The first merge request in this repo !1 was to implement always showing the tab bar.

  * Some users have found, created an account, and commented at the previous MR to ask that it be reconsidered.

  * Arch opt-in pkgstats shows non-zero count for aur/dolphin-tabopts since early 2023.  Max 15 in early 2025.  Current 5.

  * Chaotic AUR download metrics is 41 (rolling 30-day count).

* Unproductive "discussion" not worth further comment.

<content type='text'>
There is one bool setting in Dolphin Interface-&gt;Folders&amp;Tabs-&gt;Split_view
which determines which panel is closed on "Close split view" button
click (currently focused or unfocused one).

This commit replaces this setting with (enum-based) 3-state combo box.
Since now we can set "When closing a split view" action to:
 - Close the active pane
 - Close the inactive pane
 - Close the right pane

<title>dolphinview: Add a dynamic view option</title>

<id>urn:sha1:edda24eb851c2647f7dde01885008ef60fcadd9a</id>
<content type='text'>
Added a 'dynamic view' option, which allows to switch from a 'compact' or 'details' view to an 'icons' view if most of the files in the directory are images or videos. It reverts to the previous view mode when we switch to a directory which doesn't meet that criteria.

The view mode is only changed once so users don't have to undo that for specific folders when they don't want icon view.

A setting is added in the "Display style" section of the general view setting page.

<id>urn:sha1:a27443d904bc220615f2c4e8df74187b0c806d8a</id>
<content type='text'>
- Statusbar has three modes: Small, FullWidth and Disabled
- FullWidth is the original statusbar
- Small is the new default statusbar
  - This statusbar overlays on top of the items instead of taking space
  - It changes size according to content
- Disabled turns statusbar completely off
- Zoom slider and space information is only shown in full-width statusbar
  - Space information is now always on
- If user navigates with keyboard, or scrolls to selection, the scrolling will take the statusbar into account
  - This makes sure the statusbar does not cover any items

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" &amp; "Previous
Tab"
-Update Split View whatsthis to explain how to tell which view is
"in focus" visually
-Replace "pane" with "view" in split view settings text, and
clarify tooltip text
-Reword "objects" to "items" in whatsThis texts
-Reword "find bar" to "search bar" in Search button whatsThis text
