D21597: Change title of action to launch PIM Settings Exporter

[David Faure]

  Yeah, well, right now it's a big mess, with 90% of the GUI talking about settings, and 10% talking about data.
  
  A very common use case for this is to export only settings. Emails are stored on IMAP, so they can be fetched again at destination.
  Of course pop3 users (assuming they still exist?) also need to transfer the emails, that's like a bonus feature in a settings exporter :-)
  As an IMAP user, it's scary to click on export data when I just want to export settings.
  For a POP3 user, if all you can find is a menu-item about exporting settings, you'll try that and you'll be glad to then realize it also exports the emails ;-)
  
  Brainstorming other solutions:
  
  - Import/Export KMail Settings/Emails... urgh, hard to read.
  - Two menuitems, which launch pimsettingsexporter with slightly different defaults?
  - s/Settings/Data/ *everywhere* in the pimsettingsexporter application (and possibly renaming it to pim-data-transfer or something...)
