V1: Meta Issue

[jarolrod]

V1 release is approaching, this is a meta issue detailing the remaining tasks to complete before we can release:

Requirements

TODO ✍️

1. • Add ability to choose a custom datadirectory
     • This would introduce a FileDialog because it's fallback is in qml, instead of a Qt Widgets fallback. A Qt widgets fallback is a non-starter
     • The FileDialog will set selectFolder to true
     • This requires enabling the missing modules in depends which can be found in the following list: DefaultFileDialog.qml includes
2. • Update OptionsModel to keep track of what settings are being updated, and only write to settings.json when told to do so
     • During Onboarding, this would be when the user has completed onboarding
     • After Onboarding, this can be whenever a setting is updated and in real time
3. • Warn that setting changed while node is running will not come into effect until node restart
     • needs design consideration: Warn that settings changed while node is running will not take into affect until the next startup BitcoinDesign/Bitcoin-Core-App#43
4. • Have UI signal when a setting is being overridden by command-line or bitcoin.conf
     • needs design consideration: Settings that are overridden  BitcoinDesign/Bitcoin-Core-App#44
5. • Find a solution to the loading and focus policy so that tab focus navigation can work properly
6. • Testing guide to be published on bitcoincore.app
