Global settings dialog is empty

[Rüdiger Kupper]

Choosing "global settings" from the menu shows a window with a list of topics, but selecting any of the topics does not present any options. You can extend the window to the right, but it only shows an empty area without anything in it. In ardour4 this dialog used to show options for the topics. In ardour5 it is useless.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

This one is quite annoying indeed.
