Christian Soffke 4346a1e8e7 playlist catalog: sort independently from file browser
Allow independent sorting of playlists in the
playlist catalog, using the context menu.

You may want to usually sort playlists by their date
(modified), but sort audio tracks alphabetically.
This is now possible without having to constantly
adjust a setting.

The fact that 'Sort Files' applied to both the file
browser and playlist catalog seems more like a side
effect of the implementation, rather than behavior
that is wanted. Additionally, the 'By Type' sorting
makes no sense when only a single type is displayed.

Since many of the other File View settings don't
apply to the playlist catalog, hide the menu there.

The \setting{Playlists} submenu allows you to configure settings
related to playlists.
\begin{description}
\item[Sort Playlists.]
This option adjusts the sorting of items listed in the \setting{Playlists}
menu (see \reference{ref:playlistoptions}). You can also press
\ActionStdContext{} in the \setting{Playlists} menu to access the option
from there, directly.
\item[Playlist Viewer Settings.]
This submenu contains settings related to the Playlist Viewer.
\begin{description}
\item[Show Icons.] This toggles display of the icon for the currently
selected playlist entry and the icon for moving a playlist entry
\item[Show Indices.] This toggles display of the line numbering for
the playlist
\item[Track Display.] This toggles between filename only and full path
for playlist entries
\end{description}
\item[Recursively Insert Directories.]
If set to \setting{On}, then when a directory is added to a playlist,
all subdirectories will also be added. If set to \setting{Ask},
Rockbox will prompt the user about whether to include sub-directories.

This submenu contains settings related to the current playlist.
\begin{description}

take an action that will cause Rockbox to erase a current playlist that has been
modified.
\item[Keep Current Track When Replacing Playlist.]
If set to \setting{Yes}, then \setting{Play} and \setting{Play Shuffled} in
the \setting{Playing Next Submenu} will allow the current track to finish
playing before the new tracks play. If set to \setting{No}, the current
track will be interrupted and new tracks will start playing immediately.
\item[Show Shuffled Adding Options.]
If set to \setting{No}, Rockbox will not offer to add shuffled tracks
in the \setting{Playing Next Submenu}.
\item[Show Queue Options.]
If set to \setting{No}, Rockbox will not display the options to queue items in
the \setting{Playing Next Submenu}.
If set to \setting{In Submenu}, Rockbox will move the options into a
separate submenu.
