Screenshot of the broken Persian translation

The names of the column types in the CSV import dialog are all combined into
one string separated by semicolons. The code then separates this string back
out into separate strings by splitting on semicolons. This is quite confusing
to translate especially as there is no comment. For example in the current
Persian and Tibetan translations for version 26.2 the semicolons have been
replaced with another punctuation mark so the splitting doesn’t work. See the
attached screenshot.

We should probably split the parts into separate strings to make translators
lives easier.

The string was recently modified because of tdf#172980 so translators will have
to retranslate it anyway.
