M3: dedup palette actions by identity, disambiguate shared labels

The same QAction is often reachable through multiple GUI clients; those
are true duplicates and are now collapsed by pointer identity. Distinct
actions that merely share a visible label (common across plugins) are kept
but disambiguated by appending the owning component's display name, and
every entry is assigned a unique, stable id so activating a row always
triggers the intended action rather than whichever one won a hash key.

 - Installs to `kf6/ktexteditor`; metadata verified valid via `KPluginMetaData`.
 - Not yet wired: frecency (the model supports a bonus, but the plugin currently

+- Duplicate handling: actions are deduplicated by pointer identity (the same
