[QGIS-Developer] Can I backport bugfix with UI updates and fixing QGIS Server regression

[René-Luc Dhont]

Hi Devs,

I have removed the commit cherry-picked from Nyall's pull-request that 
update the layout designer dialog.
So my Pull-request only contains changes for QGIS Server to fix the 
regression about printing selection.

I have introduced the capability to print selection in QGIS Server for 
version 3.4 LTR with the pull-request [Server] Reactivate the capability 
to print selection with Server 3.4 https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/8320
This capability is available for image export and was tested and this 
pull-request fix inconsistent use of layout render context flags and add 
test to validate it.

I really hope this will be fix it version 3.4.9.

Regards,
René-Luc
