[Implemented] Reenable "Keep relative paths" option when copying from search lisbox

[petermad]

In TC 9.22a this option was present: "Keep relative paths (relative to current directory)" - when copying from a search listbox when the search was done in a File system plugin like MediaAudio2 or Virtual panel. The option disappeared with the introduction of the [+F7] and +[F8] buttons in all copy/download dialogs in TC 9.50b1. (see: viewtopic.php?p=393180#p393180 for screenshots etc.)

It would be nice if the option was re-enabled, positively also for search listboxes on FTP-sites where the path's are already shown relative in the listbox as they are in File system plugins.

It would be even better if it could also be enabled for searches on Local hard disk when there has only been searched in one starting directory and its sub-directories.

I would suggest that the directory bar (over the tab headers), that is currently empty when showing search results, could be used to keep track of whether the search was done in one starting directory or in several directories/drives. If the search was done in one directory the base directory could be shown in the current directory bar (like it is for Branch View), but if the search was done across directories/drives it could show something like "[no base directory]".

If the search was done in one starting directory then relative paths should be shown in the listbox, and if not: full paths should be shown.

Thanks for the reminder.
For plugins it was a bug, the checkbox was there but invisible. The functions still support it, so I can just reenable it.
For FTP I can't enable it because there are already 3 other checkboxes, the current limit for that dialog. Even if I added one more, the functionality isn't currently there.
For search results, there is no relative path, only an absolute path, that's why I removed it.

12.06.22 Fixed: File system plugin, find files, feed to listbox, F5 copy -> the option to preserve relative paths was missing after TC 9.22a (32/64)

confirmed re-enabled in TC 10.50rc2
