When the MaterialManagementModel is initialized, it will check whether during this startup new materials were installed. If that's the case, then it will show the prompt message to sync those materials with the printers, which should initiate the sync materials flow.
CURA-8254
Instead of updating the storage path every time you add or remove a removable drive, we now update the storage path every time you press the button to sync. That way this detail has no impact on performance of other parts of Cura if they don't use this button. It also makes the code a bit simpler.
The only downside is that this FileDialog then contains state, instead of automatically syncing with the MaterialManagement property for its folder property. I see that as a lesser of two evils.

I had disabled that in an attempt to fix the bytes-to-str conversion issue, but it turned out to not be the cause. Compression is fine.

We encountered an issue yesterday that we had to find in a log file when a user was importing a material. Nothing is shown in the log when importing a material, so it was impossible to find.
Now we'll log this action. It is a direct user action, so info is a good log level.
Converted doxygen style comments to reStructuredText style in the files
found in Cura/cura/Model directory recursively using the script
dox_2_rst.py (provided in the Uranium repo). Comments were manually
checked and changed if needed.
Note: dox_2rst.py struggles with decorated functions.
We just track it via the preference value itself rather than duplicating that in any other data structure. It's simple enough.

We can reuse our duplicateMaterial function again but in a simpler way. Also finding the preferred material is simpler with our container tree.
However there seems to be a problem with finding the preferred material; it's not finding generic_pla for UM3 and AA0.4 anyway, and then falls back on a random material. This needs to be fixed in the variant node class.

Just like the QualityManagementModel, this class is intended to be used as proxy for the material management page in the preferences. I'm intending to move all relevant pyqtSlots from the material manager into this one. The advantage of this switch is that the material manager had no well-bounded scope and so tended to become a big mess of all sorts of functions. This one has a clear scope: serve as a proxy for the buttons you can press in the preferences screen for materials.

Cast every sorting key to uppercase before doing this. Don't cast to lowercase or there will be problems with characters that don't have lowercase and with Turkish dotted i vs. undotted i.
Fixes#3460.
