Rename cleanup actions: "Prepare for LaTeX" and "Prepare for BibTeX"
See original GitHub issueWhen this first came up: https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/8490#issuecomment-1091209909
My Problem:
Cleanup actions are not well described and contrary to users intuitive thought.
I always thought the “LaTeX cleanup” action would remove LaTeX code so that the entries will be rendered well via CSL entry preview or alternatively that the entries will be rendered well when using them with OpenOffice/LibreOffice, but instead this action mostly removes characters (via RegEx) that hinder the bibliographic data to be used with LaTeX. Therefore, this cleanup-action does not convert from LaTeX to “something else”, but rather it goes the opposite direction.
Solution:
Make it more transparent to the user, which of the clenaup actions are advised to be used when trying to use the entries with LaTeX and Bibtex.
