Research direction
The implementation steps are outlined: add tab width to ProjectSettings, show dropdown in project settings dialog, remove from ApplicationSettings, and update QtCodeField. Review the existing ProjectSettings and ApplicationSettings classes for patterns. Look at the project settings dialog UI code to add the dropdown. Check the issue comments for any additional context or modifications. The key files to modify are ProjectSettings.h/cpp, ApplicationSettings.h/cpp, QtCodeField, and the project settings dialog.
