QKeySequence returns special characters for keys on the mac rather than
textual key names (as on other OSes).
Since these symbols are not included in many fonts, we re-translate them
to textual names
Fixes: #10641
When searching for and item in the menu, also try to consider those that
require a BufferView (such as View/Update formats).
Also, be explicit for the default format in order to find it.

On some recent Windows versions, GetLastError() may also return
NO_ERROR instead of ERROR_IO_PENDING during an overlapped write
operation to a pipe. This was confusing the state machine in
Server.cpp so that replies to commands were scheduled but were
never actually output.
This is a low hanging fruit, since it's already available (although
quite hidden)
Generally, output "not set" i a pref is not set rather than an empty
string.
This allows to address data in the current lyx-system-directory.
The additional prefix is '~:s/'
The original prefix '~/' still addresses current users home directory.
With this commit, info insets leave the dark backstage room of an opaque
and quite hidden dev-only feature and come frontstage.
In the UI, they present themselves as "Fields" since this is what people
know from word processors. Other user-related fields that could be
implemented next: time, user name (I plan to do that for 2.4).
Since this supersedes date-insert, I removed Insert > Date from
the menu and propose to ditch date-insert and the corresponding rc.
The lyx2lyx reversion routine has lots of room for improvement and
attractive tasks for pythons (file timestamp, switch of localization).
Please feel invited!
This is a file format change.
