Move prefs, import, export, open dialogs to dialogs section

Jacob Boerema requested to merge wip/wormnest/move-docs into master

As announced on discourse we are moving certain parts of the documentation.

This MR moves that documentation, synchronizes the translations, and removes unneeded files.

The MR is here to make sure that we don't have any validation errors.

Documentation for most dialogs, except smaller ones, should be placed in the Dialogs section of the manual. Currently a lot of them can be find in other places. This is a first step in moving some of them. This change does the following:

  • Move all files that document the Preferences dialog from /using/preferences/ to /dialogs/ and remove the former folder. This creates a new section for Preferences under dialogs.
  • Move the Open Image dialog documentation from /menus/file/open.xml to newly created /open-file-dialog.xml, adjust the first to point to the documentation of the dialog. Note that this still needs to be synchronized with other places that mention the Open dialog.
  • Add /dialogs/import-file-formats.xml with the relevant documentation moved from /concepts/images-loading.xml.
  • Add /dialogs/export-file-formats.xml with the relevant documentation moved from /using/fileformats.xml.
  • Create a file dialogs section under /dialogs/ and add open-file-dialog, save-file-dialog and export-file-dialog (these two moved from Misc dialogs), import-file-formats and export-file-formats.
  • Update gimp.xml to reflect these changes.
