An extension to the UmbracoHelper with several ease of life improvements
Using the new method `Umbraco.GetDictionaryValueAndCreateDictionaryItem(string key, string fallback="")` you can create dictionary items code first by simply requesting them in your code. It's no longer necessary to manually create the dictionary items under Umbraco -> Settings.
"Folders" in the dictionary is created based on the name of the key, example:
The key "Foo_Bar_Key" will be placed in Dictionary -> "Foo" -> "Bar"
The method has 3 "creation modes":
The creation mode can be set by modifying the app.config key: "KXB.Umbraco.UmbracoDictionaryExtension.CreationMode"
Using `Umbraco.GetDictionaryItemsForPrefix(string prefix)` or `GetDictionaryValuesForPrefix(string prefix)` you can retrieve dictionary values for a given prefix.
Example:
`Umbraco.GetDictionaryItemsForPrefix("Foo.")` could return dictionary items with the following keys:
App config keys and their usage:
"KXB.Umbraco.UmbracoDictionaryExtension.CreationMode" determines what values is stored in newly created keys. Valid options are "key" (default), "fallback", "empty"
"KXB.Umbraco.UmbracoDictionaryExtension.SeparationSymbol" determines which symbol is used to separate "folders" in the names of dictionary keys. Default value is "_"
