[C2] Better settings categorization #6819
Description
As we have new settings categories in C2, there are many settings that feel like they're not in the right place right now.
This is a list of what to change.
Categories changes
- All categories should be sorted by their English name. "AI helpers" (currently second to last) should be second in the list. "Catalog" should be somewhere at the beginning, not the last one.
- There needs to be a new category called "Workflows" ("workflows" in the "category" column) (use icon ObjectIcon::SEQUENCE)
- There needs to be a new category called "Privacy" ("privacy" in the "category" column) with icon ObjectIcon::ANONYMOUS
- "Cas" should be printed "CAS" (in all languages, this doesn't need to be translated)
- "Lp" should be printed the translated version of "Learning path". Make an exception for this term.

Other changes
- In "course" category, "Active tools on course creation" and "Hide tools from teachers" should show the list vertically.
- In those two options, the "Asset", "Course homepage", "Course tool", "Course maintenance", "Member" (because "User" also exists), "Course setting", "Shortcuts", "Tool intro" and "Usergroup" options should not appear. I'm not sure about the plugin entries (Customcertiicate, Mobidico, Notebookteacher, Positioning, Test2pdf, Bbb & Zoom) but I would assume they do not appear if the plugin is not enabled, so it's kind of OK to have them for now.
