Description Nate Graham 2022-02-25 21:51:31 UTC

If your book collection doesn't have adequate metadata, these pages are empty, and don't even show some kind of placeholder text. So they look broken.

I want to tackle this and understand QML/Qt better by doing this small fix.

Add placeholder text to empty category pages

This commit adds a PlaceholderMessage to the Bookshelf which is shown if
CategoryEntriesModel.count == 0. This occurs if e.g. there are no comics with
the according metadata in the library.
