Feature: User defined field names in export

When exporting layers, users may now override the field names in the resulting layers.

The export dialog fields interface includes the following changes:

  • A new "Export names" column has been introduced to the fields table
  • A convenience checkbox is provided to automatically generate aliases, or revert to original field names
  • When field names are modified by the user, the checkbox will display a "PartiallyChecked" state indicator
