Berthold Stoeger 9ee8807af7 export: show progress dialog for TeX exports
The TeX exports may hang the UI for a long time.

Show a progress-dialog that is updated after every exported dive
and allows the user to cancel the export.

This is pretty lame, because it is synchronous (export still runs
in UI thread) and therefore the UI still is sluggish. But it
is an improvement.

Since the TeX-exporting code is in a shared directory (desktop and
mobile), this uses a slim interface class. Mobile does not
yet use TeX export, but you never know. Better than #ifdefs
sprinkled all around, I reckon.

This directory contains shared UI backend code shared between
the desktop version and the mobile version.

The backend code sits between the actual functionality, which
are implemented in core and qt-models, and the UI/QML which
are implemented in desktop-widgets and mobile-widgets.

The idea of backend is not to duplicate code, and at the same time
limit the UI and QML to only deal with real GUI.

The first implementations for backend are "export" and "diveplanner".
