Add Multibrush 'Copy Translate at Intervals' mode

The first commit fixes a bug where the Multibrush's Rotation and Radius options weren't loaded from the config correctly.

The second commit is based on this feature request on KA: https://krita-artists.org/t/multibrush-copy-translate-interval-x-and-y/ .

This adds a "Copy Translate at Intervals" mode to the Multibrush tool, which is similar to Copy Translate, but sets the brushes automatically at X and Y intervals to split the image or selection into a grid and draw simultaneously in each rectangle.

I am not sure about the wording of any of the strings (the mode name "Copy Translate at Intervals", the warning Multibrush Tool does not support more than %1 brushes; use a larger interval.).

Test Plan

  1. Set the Multibrush Tool to "Copy Translate at Intervals".
  2. Change the intervals, drawing inside the given rectangles (visible with "Show Origin" which shows the brush locations) should work as expected. With one interval set to 0 and the other not, it should make a single line of brushes.
  3. An interval that would cause >50 brushes should show a warning on the canvas instead, since too many brushes would cause extreme lag.
  4. Add a selection; the intervals should be bounded to the selection instead of the image (so that they start at the selection rect's top left).
