This PR rearranged the admin edit views according to the new 'JUX standards.
Goal is to improve usability and coherence

The views that are changed include article,category, module, plugin, menu item and all other item edit views in the core components.

Changes

Gobal changes

• Renamed tabs (i.e. removing the words ‘options’ and ‘settings’)
• Moved ‘Details’ (right column) into the first tab
• Moved title and alias fields above tabs (and removed the title heading)
• Added placeholder text to alias field: “Auto-generate from title"
• Changed ordering and location of a number of options
• Made list of options (params) divide over 2 columns if more than 10

Specific changes by view

Article

• Moved ‘Images & Links’ to separate tab
• Moved ‘Meta data’ options into publishing tab
• Removed the useless ‘Configure Edit Screen’ tab

Module & Plugins

• Description is truncated if more than 500 character (of no-html text) and full description is then put into separate tab 'Description'.
• Description tab can be overruled by a custom fieldset in the xml with name="description" (in that case, main description will not get truncated).

Module

• On Custom HTML Module, the editor is placed in first tab

Plugin

• Because the plugin only has 2 global options (publish state and access) and those are the most commonly changed options, those are placed under the description.

Testing instructions

Test all item edit views to see if nothing breaks and options are saved ok.
