Settings - catalog - add maintenance tab

[user0]

XnViewMP 1.7.2
Windows11 (23H2), display resolution 3840x2160, dpi scale 150%

Settings - catalog
while I believe the new Catalog pane is the best solution, there’s still room for a few minor improvements to the existing layout


Suggestion

• add maintenance tab
  split db content from Catalog tab into separate one

• rename tab
  Catalog → Database
