Fix metadataselector sort

David Haslam requested to merge dchcode/digikam:fix-metadataselector-sort into master

This is a set of of small changes to the metadata selector widget:

  • Sort the list

This seems a reasonable thing, especially as the XMP list is longer now, since adding missing namespaces.

  • Allow the child indicator to be visible

I've often wanted to be able to collapse the views, but had no idea that double-clicking the header does that. I'm sure I'm not alone. I think it would help new users to make this more visible. I realise the look needs improving, and I plan to do this, but it will require separating the MdKeyListViewItem class which is shared with the RHS panel metadata widget.

  • Add a tooltip to the tag item rows

This shows the full Exiv2 style name ("family.group.tag"). I though this would be helpful to technical users who understand metadata and use the exiftool and exiv2 CLI tools.

  • Wrap columns at 80, and tidy some of the comments

Just to make the code a little easier to read for the next person who comes along.
