The problem was that, in this case, we actually delete the current inset
in changeCmdName. So when we return from that and attempt to call initView(),
we're in a non-existent inset.
Another implementation would have been to use the lspace and rspace attributes in MathML, but they require to give the exact spacing before and after the operator instead of relying on rules like TeX.
For instance, `$a\mathbin{+}b$` resulted in this MathML output before the patch:
```
<math xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML'>
<mrow>
<mi>a</mi><!-- -->
<mi>[mathbin [char + mathalpha]]</mi>
<mi>b</mi>
</mrow>
</math>
```
For comparison, this was the output with LyX 2.3.7
```
<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML">
<mrow>
<mrow><mi>a</mi><!-- -->
<mi>[mathbin [char + mathalpha]]
</mi><mi>b</mi>
</mrow>
</mrow></math>
```
After this patch, it looks like:
```
<math xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML'>
<mstyle class='math'>
<mrow>
<mi>a</mi>
<mo>+</mo>
<mi>b</mi>
</mrow>
</mstyle>
</math>
```
This does now apply to the whole inset or paragraph group (not to the
current paragraph only) unless the new boolean AllowedOccurrencesPerItem
is set and we are in a list-type environment.

This allows to restrict the use of flex insets to specific contexts.
Note that this is currently very basis. It only considers immediately
containing insets/layouts and can be surpassed via cut and paste.
The use case that made me finally implement this are macros in covington
that make sense only in specific environments (but also consider \inst
in some article classes)
A new counter type \superarabic is introduced, that transforms the
counter into superscript Unicode numbers.
This is used for the footnote counter.
The Foot inset layout is modified to use an empty LabelString (in size
Normal, since the numbers could be too small).
We use this occasion to set footnote text in footnotesize, as it should.
A couple of changes are done to the code to make the button label and
tooltip look better.
Fixes bug #12238.
