Should fix #8238

I'm not a huge fan of this layout (it could be problematic for some translations) but it's one of the solutions.

@tigoe @mbanzi @cmaglie @sandeepmistry any thought?

Is "Update sketch files to new extension on save" still needed in the UI, more than 7 years after adding the .ino in version 1.0?

Is "Aggressively cache compiled core" really needed as a user visible setting?

@PaulStoffregen I agree with both your concerns; when core caching was introduced I feared it could have side effects so I pushed to introduce the flag (I think it can be safely removed now since no bug related to that functionality was ever reported).
Same applies to pde -> ino , I'd keep it s default and hide in the UI.
