Tab Switcher Like Recent Files Popup

Adds a tab switcher that behaves like Recent Files or Recent Edited files popup in order to use key completion

Why?

Current tab switcher disappears too quickly when using Ctrl+Tab. You can hold the key and press Tab to move up/down the list of tabs but it is not enough.

This reuses the same Switcher as Recent files which allows the user to press a key to quickly select tab or filter.

Enhancements ideas:

  • Add additional command to work per window instead of across windows i.e list tabs in current window
  • When working across windows; handle multiple active editors. currently only hides active editors in all windows in the list
