When configuring the HW/SW inventory dashboard widget, some attributes from different inventory paths shared the same display title (e.g. three entries all showing "Metadata ➤ Object" for Azure, Kubernetes, and Proxmox VE).

The dropdown now detects duplicate titles and prepends the parent category to distinguish them (e.g. "Azure ➤ Metadata ➤ Object").
