Differentiate between cancer study types for proteomics support

[mikkonie]

I noticed an issue with cancer study app shortcut generation in proteomics projects and discussed it with @mkuhring.

The "short" and "simple" version:

• The cancer study app is used in a proteomics project, based on the bih_cancer configuration
• It tries to find shortcut URLs in the study table per source but fails
• This is actually OK, because data is (most likely) not sorted that way
• Hence we are left with a useless shortcut column with buttons always disabled

Ergo, we'd need some way to (preferably) limit the use of the cancer study app to non-Proteomics projects, or at least tell the app not to provide shortcuts if it's used in a Proteomics project.

TBD: What parameter(s) to use in detecting the project type beyond ISAtab configuration? Or should there be a new configuration for cancer/proteomics?

Ideas are welcome.

Temporary workaround:

• In the cancer study app:
• Iterate through assays in study
• IF only mass spec assays are found THEN don't show shortcuts (or create cache data for them)

Aforementioned workaround done for v0.5.0.
