[Feature #6562] add editable option for all edit types

[3nids]

I have added an option to define if a field is editable or not by the user.

I know there was the immutable edit type but, this property is more a field property than a proper edit type. Indeed, value relations, ranges or checkboxes could not be disabled before.

I have not removed the immutable type since the edit types are saved as numbers (and not text) in the project.
I would propose to change this. But for compatibility, we would have to create some translation methods (int->string, string->int) to traduce the enum type to the name of the edit type.
Discussion's open!

Cool, thanks!

I don't have much time to go further on this, but it might be a good idea to remove the "immutable" type before 2.0.

Do you have any advise on how to achieve this?

• just remove the edit type and forget about compatibility break
• change the way of things are saved in the project (ie.e edit type string instead of number) and create a map for key/value related to the enum.
