Bug description

When a score imported from GP contains an alternate tuning indication (I.e. anything other than "standard tuning"), MS recognises the alternate tuning but doesn't show the engraved tuning element.

Expected behaviour

If the engraved alternate tuning element is shown in a GP score, it should also be shown in MS on import.
Basically, the correct data is already imported when opening a GP file, and you can even see this in the new engraving widget element (see video below), so the work required is to ensure this element is displayed by default (and ideally in such a way that it matches what is seen in the GP score).

Steps to reproduce
