Where Does Veusz Store Settings?

Veusz Qt settings with per-OS mapped names and verify note.

Veusz stores settings through Qt mappings under org plus app names. Windows uses registry while Mac and Linux use mapped files. Exact Mac names deserve a live check.

Multiplatform plotting app throughout. Keep the OS-matched spot.
