Summary	0017956: [patch] External Tools Preferences UI Polish
Description	- Reworks `prefs_externaltoolsbase.ui` from a scroll-area layout to a compact single-column layout. - Groups controls into PostScript Interpreter, External Applications, and Render Frames. - Consolidates external application paths into one aligned grid and replaces repeated text browse buttons with icon-only `QToolButton`s using `IconManager`. - Reorganizes Render Frame configuration actions as Up / Down / Edit / Add / Delete beside the list, with tooltips and accessible names. - Removes the unused `latexEmbeddedEditorCheckBox` / Use Embedded Editor UI. - Places Render Frame DPI directly after Force DPI: and connects `latexForceDPICheckBox::toggled(bool)` to `latexResolutionSpinBox::setEnabled(bool)`. - Sets both DPI spinboxes to a consistent 90 px width. - Renames the pane-wide action to Rescan Tools and keeps the existing reload icon. - Reorders TAB navigation to match the new visual layout. - No preference schema/storage changes; external-tool behavior is otherwise unchanged. - Files touched: `prefs_externaltoolsbase.ui`, `prefs_externaltools.cpp`.
