Description
Originally noticed here: https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/34552
Task
Add a dialog when attempting to delete a measure that is concurrent with a measure repeat. Right now, the deletion silently fails.

It can feel like a bug if the measure repeat happens to be on a hidden instrument. Make sure the copy warns appropriately for this case.
