D19471: Middle-elide file/folder labels so the extension is always visible

[Méven Car]

  We would need a custom elideText function to solve https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=404955
  Original Qt function :
  https://code.woboq.org/qt5/qtbase/src/gui/text/qtextengine.cpp.html#_ZNK11QTextEngine10elidedTextEN2Qt13TextElideModeERK6QFixediii
  
  With
  MyverylongFileName.txt
  
  Currently we end up with Qt::ElideMiddle:
  Myveryl....Name.txt
  
  What we want I guess is : Qt::ElideLeft, keeping file extension.
  MyverylongFil....txt
  
  A function wrapping `m_customizedFontMetrics.elidedText(text, Qt::ElideMiddle, availableTextWidth)` while excluding file extension.
