When some value contains a opening angle bracket "<", any enclosed
text up to the closing ">" is removed from the value.
The mangling only happened for files which are readonly, making the
behavior even more awkward.
As any text properties a always plain text, remove the stripping
also for readonly files.
Depends on D25238
The stripping in the ValueWidget sizeHint is broken as well,
in case the value is PlainText, it would strip regular text from
the size calculation (creating a too narrow widget), for RichText
the sizeHint without stripping is too wide, but the layout
engine wraps the content correctly (it's a hint, after all).
As there are no users for the plainText function left, remove it.
