• added "Query Editor" preference pane for setting colors, font, and modes (from the CQ's action gear which are still customizable there)

- in addition to the syntax colors it's now possible to change the fore/background color as well
• added "Update Help while typing" feature in the Custom Query editor
• first trial to improve syntax highlighting for large text in the Custom Query editor
- if the text is larger than 10k the highlighting is performed only for the visible text area ±bias (3.5k)
- if the user changes the visible area the highlighting follows time-delayed 500ms) to assure user interaction
- a test with a 45MB SQL dump worked (of course a tick slowier)
-- todo: improve prev/current query detection (mainly the SQLParser)
- if the text size is > 6MB the completion list won't show words from the text due to parsing time
- if the text size is > 6MB the line numbering will be disabled due to performance issue (improvements should follow)
• some tiny clarification changes in the syntax highlighting code
• some minor code cosmetics
