Make space shortcut for selection mode view-local instead of global
Before this commit, the "Space" keyboard shortcut was bound to
triggering selection mode by default. After this commit, pressing
"Space" will only trigger selection mode when the file view area
has keyboard focus.
Pros:
+ Other buttons in the UI can be triggered with Space once again
just like it is expected from an accessibility point of view.
+ "Type-ahead" searching works once more when typing the space
char for file names containing such a space char.
Cons:
- "Space" can no longer be used to add the currently underlined
item to the selection. Instead "Ctrl+Space" needs to be used.
(However, this is the current status anyway unless a user has
manually unbound "Space" as a shortcut from Selection Mode.)
- The Selection Mode action will no longer show "Space" as its
shortcut in menus.
Overall, I see solutions to all of these problems, but they seem
over-engineered for the issues they are trying to solve, so I
believe this somewhat small commit is the best solution for now.

Don't recurse into symlinks when counting directory contents
Symlink contents should not be visited for the purpose of displaying sizes.
Not only is potentially misleading because the storage is actually used
elsewhere (the target location), it can be completely wrong as contents can
be visited multiple times, even recursively.

Fix potential nullptr de-reference
The `break` that is replaced by a `return` here would only break
out of the innermost while loop so the std::vector::end could still
become accessed after that. By returning here we completely exit
out of both nested loops and therefore don't access the
std::vector::end.

Properly use X11 startup ids
When one instance of Dolphin activates another it passes a startupId (X11) / activation token (wayland) along.
On X11 this is passed using the DESKTOP_STARTUP_ID environment variable. The code tries to read that through KStartupInfo::startupId().
That doesn't work though, since Qt at startup reads the environment variable afterwards. However, it is nice enough to allow us to access
it through QX11Info::nextStartupId(). Use that to read the token in the first instance and pass it to the second instance like we do on Wayland
The user-facing impact of this is minimal since KStartupInfo::setNewStartupId internally falls back to KWindowSystem::forceActiveWindow when no
startupId is passed.

Fixed build-time deprecation warning about KStandardGuiItem::yes()
While building dolphin, a warning comes up about KStandardGuiItem::yes()
being deprecated, and that another action verb should be using instead.
This commit fixes the warning by replacing KStandardGuiItem::yes() with
a KGuiItem constructor in the file src/views/dolphinview.cpp.
The icon for the "Rename and Hide" button has also been changed from a
check mark (dialog-ok) to an eye with a cross (view-hidden) to make the
button look more unique and grab the attention of the user.

Fix view mode-specific settings not always applying
When the current view mode is different from the view mode for
which settings were changed in Dolphin's settings dialog, those
changes were sometimes not present when then changing the view
mode of a view to the view mode for which settings were changed.
This commit fixes this by always loading the settings for all view
modes in the DolphinItemListView even if the view is currently
using only one of those view modes.

Change the full row highlight checkbox to radiobuttons
This commit changes how the setting to switch between full row
highlight and the old way of only having the icons and names be
activatable in details mode is presented on the settings page.
Before this commit a singular checkbox is used that talks about
the highlight effect.
But the highlight effect isn't actually what users should be
interested in. They mostly care how much of the area can be used to
activate an item. To make this clear this commit uses radio buttons
instead that give a distinctive choice between activation areas.

Make details column text readable
When not using the full row highlight, the text of non-name columns
in details view mode was wrongly colored in a way that pretended
that the full row selection highlight was active.
When it isn't active we use the normal color that we generally use
when the additional information is not within the selection
highlight.

Make details view mode's full row activation optional
In d3839617193e92463806580699caa595c892b8a6 the details view mode
was changed in a way that made the full row of an item the click
target instead of only having the item's icon and text be the
representative clickable area of an item.
This commit makes this new behaviour optional through a setting
which can be changed in Dolphin's settings dialog.
The explanation for introducing yet another setting in this case is
as follows:
While the introduced change is an improvement for many typical
workflows, there are some workflows for which this new behaviour
is problematic. Quite prominently a usage of Dolphin that tries
to maximise information density is made worse by the change because
now side padding is necessary to click the view's background. While
the side padding is and was optional, disabling it made switching
the active view in split view mode more difficult among other
things. For a more complete discussion about the issues, please
check out the bug report(s) and the discussion in Dolphin's gitlab
issue with number 34.
