Currently, when editing a leaf-list,
nb_candidate_edit
expects to receive its xpath without a predicate and the value in a separate argument, and then creates the full xpath. This hack is complicated, because it depends on the operation and on the caller being a backend or not. Instead, let's require to always include the predicate in a leaf-list xpath. Update all the usages in the code accordingly.
