When setting the text color for an invalid alias, use the Qt stylesheeet
mechanism rather than QPalette, so that it works correctly with
an applied QSS stylesheeet. Also attempt to detect a darkmode stylesheet
and use lighter shade of red so that the alias is more legible. Finally,
instead of explicitly setting the text color to black when it's valid,
reset to the original stylesheet (usually an empty string). This ensures
that in a dark stylesheet the text color is legible.

Cell binding allows one to bind a range of cells of one sheet to another
range of cells of an arbitary sheet, including any empty cells in the
range.
The binding is implemented with PropertyExpressionEngine and
PropertySheet::setPathValue(), which binds a special path of
PropertySheet, such as
.cells.Bind.A1.D1
to an expression, such as
tuple(.cells, <<A2>>, <<A5>>)
The A1 and D1 in the example above specifies the binding start and end
cell address. And <<A2>> and <<A5>> are the range of cells to bind to.
Note that you can use any expression that evalutes to string for the
binding destination, e.g. <<A%d>> % B1, which uses the value inside B1
to construct the binding destination. The '.cells' in the tuple shown
above is an example to bind cells of the same PropertySheet. It can be
change to to reference to any other spreadsheet, even those outside the
current document, e.g. Document#Spreadsheet001.cells
For single range copy, the range selection when pasting determines the
start cell and the number of duplications.
For example, when copying a range A1:B2 (i.e. a 2x2 square) and pasting
into a selection of C1:C5 (i.e. a 5x1 vertical line), the square will be
duplicated once in horizontal, but twice in vertical, resulting new
cells range from C1:D4. This logic is borrowed from google sheet.
For multi-ranged copy, no multi duplication is intended. If more than
one selection range exists before pasting, only the top left cell of
the last selected range is used to determine the starting cell for
pasting. The cells will be copied with the exact cell layout keeping any
empty cells in between. This logic is different from google sheet, where
it disallows unalligned multi-ranged copy, and will condense and
eliminate any empty cells for aligned multi-range copy.
Remove functions from they Python code for ViewProviderSpreadsheet that
are now in SheetView, and eliminate the unneded files for SheetView now
that it's being generated by hand to facilitate pseudo-inheritance.
Add the following functions to the Python interface of SheetView:
* selectedRanges()
* selectedCells()
* select(cell, flags)
* select(upperLeft, lowerRight, flags)
* currentIndex()
* setCurrentIndex(cell)
* do not simply return with Py_None from Python handler without incrementing the ref. counter as otherwise the interpreter steals a reference and the program will crash after a while
* avoid using the plain Python C API and instead use the PyCXX API
Implement modifying the current selection programmatically via the
ViewProvider object in both C++ and Python. This enables unit testing of
GUI tasks that require a selection, and improves scriptability of
Spreadsheet.
