Added keyboard hotkeys for search entry, new open dialog (issue #51)

newhoa requested to merge newhoa/catfish:hotkeys_search_entry_file_chooser into master

This adds keyboard accelerators for focusing and highlighting the toolbar search entry as well as bringing up the open folder dialog for choosing a location. It should make things better for accessibility and keyboard-centric users in general.

A new GtkFileChooserDialog was added via glade for this as the hotkey would not apply to the automatic File Chooser generated by GtkFileChooserButton.

The Select Folder dialog now has a slightly different layout than the "Save As..." dialog. If this is an issue please let me know and I can try and change it. I also have not tested this on Wayland yet or other machines than mine.

Hotkeys: Toolbar Search Entry = Ctrl+f Open Folder Dialog = Ctrl+o or Ctrl+l
