CollapsibleSection

A section with a header bar that shows or hides one content widget.

Detailed description

The header is a button with the title and an arrow. A click on the header toggles the section: the arrow points down when the section is expanded and right when it is collapsed. A new section is expanded. Put several sections in a QVBoxLayout to make a column of cards.

The section takes ownership of the widget given to setContentWidget() and of the widget given to setHeaderTrailingWidget(). A new widget replaces the previous one, and the section deletes the previous one.
