easily to a layout
The new "Add Item" -> "Dynamic Text" menu contains a bunch of preset
handy dynamic text expressions which users can use to insert a label
automatically containing the corresponding expression. E.g.
Add Item -> Dynamic Text -> Layout Name
will insert a label containing the expression [% @layout_name %].
This raises discoverability and user-friendliness of inserting
dynamic labels
For same reason as we do in Processing registry:

While it seems like /Factory/ would be the correct annotations here, that's not
the case.
As per Phil Thomson's advice on https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/pipermail/pyqt/2017-July/039450.html:
"
/Factory/ is used when the instance returned is guaranteed to be new to Python.
In this case it isn't because it has already been seen when being returned by QgsProcessingAlgorithm::createInstance()
(However for a different sub-class implemented in C++ then it would be the first time it was seen
by Python so the /Factory/ on create() would be correct.)
You might try using /TransferBack/ on create() instead - that might be the best compromise.

Turns out there is NO reliable way to create a proxy model
which adds new rows to a model, so just bite the bullet and
do it in the underlying model (yuck)
For the c++ api dox this expands to "\c nullptr" (the
\c directive indicates a code literal value), and for sipify/Python
it expands to ``None`` (`` is sphinx annotation for literal values)
Makes for nicer dox for both c++ and Python!
a toolbar in the map item properties panel
This moves the
- refresh preview
- set to map canvas extent
- view extent in map canvas
buttons from being oversized push buttons within the item properties
panel up to a new toolbar at the top of this panel. Apart from looking
better, it means these important actions are always visible regardless
of the scroll position of the item properties panel itself.
Additionally, it makes it possible to add MORE actions here without
overloading the UI (e.g. "set canvas extent to item extent")

layout designer interface API
This commit adds more methods to the public, stable API for the layout
designer dialog, allowing plugins and scripts greater flexibility
in extending and hooking into the layout designer.
New API includes:
- access to the main menus shown in the dialog, allowing custom actions
to be added to the dialog
- access to the dialog's toolbars
- methods for adding (and removing) additional dock widgets to the designer
- the method used to show/hide rulers in the designer
Checks whether a function declaration has parameters that are
top level const.
const values in declarations do not affect the signature of a
function, so they should not be put there.
