Previously lmms used themed dialogs for project saving/opening, but not when editing settings (edit -> settings). With this change, the settings editor also uses themed dialogs.
I totally agree. FWIW, LMMS is the only program I use that uses custom-themed file dialogs. |

Blender has custom themed file browsing and it makes for a consistent
experience as well as offering things the regular browser doesn't.

Previously lmms used themed dialogs for project saving/opening, but not when changing settings (edit -> settings).
With this change, the settings editor also uses themed dialogs. I believe that means every file dialog in lmms now uses our own
FileDialogthemed dialog type.Since everything's going through
FileDialog, it's just one line of code to enable/disable theming should I someday manage to convince you all that we should use OS-native dialogs instead of custom-themed ones (because, say, the gtk file chooser includes previews for image types whereas custom dialogs don't, or because OS-native file choosers include user-bookmarked locations, whereas custom dialogs don't, ...).But regardless of your views when it comes to themed vs native dialogs (hint: native is better), hopefully everyone agrees at the very least that making the application internally consistent is better than mixing themed and native dialogs, which is what this PR accomplishes.
