    Make details view mode's full row activation optional · 9478f147

     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.
