The dialogs are parented to the main window, which means sip
transfers the ownership to the main window - and they are
never deleted as a result. This results in various error
messages caused by the widgets hanging around forever
and listening out for various signals they are connected to.
initAlgorithm() method
This allows 2 benefits:
- algorithms can be subclassed and have subclasses add additional
parameters/outputs to the algorithm. With the previous approach
of declaring parameters/outputs in the constructor, it's not
possible to call virtual methods to add additional parameters/
outputs (since you can't call virtual methods from a constructor).
- initAlgorithm takes a variant map argument, allowing the algorithm
to dynamically adjust its declared parameters and outputs according
to this configuration map. This potentially allows model algorithms which
can be configured to have variable numbers of parameters and
outputs at run time. E.g. a "router" algorithm which directs
features to one of any number of output sinks depending on some
user configured criteria.
Well... kind of. It fixes the toolbar button size, but for some
reason the actual icon content itself isn't being resized. I can't
work out why this is...
The previous naming was too easily confused with processing outputs.
Rename them to QgsProcessingParameterFileDestination, etc... to
make it clearer what they are used for.
Contains variables for model parameters, algorithm results for
other child algorithms which are not dependent on the
algorithm.
Allows removal of final pieces of ModelerAlgorithm code
parameters in models
There's not a 1:1 correlation here - vector layers can be used
as inputs for sources, but sources cannot be used when a
full vector layer is required.

Helps aid in user discoverability of these algorithms, and
indicates to users that these should generally be the
preferred algorithm choices if duplicates exist from other
providers.
Also fix some UX issues with the panel in folder, such as
correctly remembering/restoring last used folders, defaulting
to home dir, don't clear value when canceling while browsing
