SUMMARY
No way to refresh importable source without reloading Digikam

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Start Digikam without media attached
2. Attach media
3. Import does not show new media or have a way to refresh without restart

OBSERVED RESULT
Newly attached removable media (SD Cards in particular) are not showing on the import menu. Digikam must be restarted with the media attached.

Additionally, media can be removed and will stay on the import menu. This allows the user to import, remove media, reconnect media, and import again.

Newly attached removable media (SD Cards in particular) areshowing on the import menu or can be added via a refresh option. Removed media should also no longer appear on the import menu.
