Qt issue with first section not movable

Hi

Those of you build Wireshark yourself or using a pre-distributed version of
Wireshark with Qt >= 5.11 might run into this issue:
https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15879

In short, Qt changed the default behavior for the first column, and it
therefore cannot be moved anymore, unless we explicitely allow it again.
Personally I would prefer keeping it that way, because I can see additional
overhead moving our way if we enable this functionality again.

Reordering the columns (and therefore setting another column as the first
one) using our column preferences is still possible. It is an inconvenience
to not being able to do it with drag-and-drop and frankly I am annoyed that
they change UI behavior mid-LTS phase.

What do you guys think? Would this be a deal breaker for you, if the first
column can no longer be moved around?

Please let me know

cheers
Roland
