PDFIMPORTIMAGEPATH and per-import layer prefixes

- PDFIMPORTIMAGEPATH names the image extraction folder: relative to the
  PDF's folder (default "PDF Images"), absolute as given, "." for none.
- Every import of the session gets the next prefix (PDF_, PDF2_, PDF3_ ...),
  also when the same file is imported again.
