Add Monitored Directory

[lilstiffy]

This pull request refactors the UI and logic for directory creation and improves consistency in user-facing messages. It updates the layout of the Home and New Directory screens, sets sensible defaults, and centralizes string constants for better maintainability.

UI layout and usability improvements:

• The Home screen layout is simplified by removing the editDirectoryButton and reducing the grid to a single column, making the interface cleaner and focusing on the "New directory" action. (HomeScreen.form, HomeScreen.java) [1] [2] [3]
• The New Directory screen layout is refactored to group "Create" and "Cancel" buttons together at the bottom, and the grid row count is reduced for a more compact design. (NewDirectoryScreen.form, NewDirectoryScreen.java) [1] [2] [3]
• The "Include subdirectories" and "Make directory active" checkboxes now default to selected, streamlining the directory creation process for typical use cases. (NewDirectoryScreen.form, NewDirectoryScreen.java) [1] [2] [3]

Consistency and maintainability:

• All user-facing strings related to directory creation (success, error, no path selected) and generic dialog titles ("Success", "Error") are moved to the centralized StringConstants class, reducing duplication and making localization easier. (StringConstants.java, NewDirectoryController.java) [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
• The logic for displaying messages in the New Directory workflow now uses these constants for both content and dialog titles, ensuring consistent terminology throughout the app. (NewDirectoryController.java) [1] [2]

Since this already was in the app I used the ticket to verify everything working as intended and did some minor improvements and cleanup
