Reorganise project menu

[nyalldawson]

The project menu has become a huge mess of random items in an illogical order:

This PR cleans it up by:

• grouping similar actions together and using separators more effectively
• moving the import/export actions to a submenu
• adding consistency to action names

After:

I'd like to also move some of the Layouts actions to further reduce clutter. I think the "New Print Layout" and "New Report" actions should be moved into the "Layouts" submenu. Any objections here?

• I'm not sure how I feel about save map as image/PDF... action being in the import/export sub-menu. I get why it makes sense for those to be there, and maybe it's just the habit of having used those so many times before it's hard to see those anywhere else. Maybe changing the wording to "Export Map as Image..." would make the actions sit better there?
• On the "close project" -> "close" action renaming, I have no problem with that, but it does highlight a tiny bit of an issue with the locator bar's way of handling shortcuts. ATM, if you type ". close" in the locator bar, you'll see the "close project" action. If it's renamed, you'll only see "close". It's not ideal; solution would be to either add the word project to the other actions (i.e. "new" -> "new project", etc.), or find a way for the locator to append the menu / sub-menu string to the action (for e.g. "Project -> Close").

Sorry, forgot to mention that's I'm an overall +1 for this change.

Maybe locator should add the tooltip in brackets (if it's different to the action text)?

Yeah, "Export to Image" would also add consistency. I'll do that.

That sounds like a good approach, I'd be fine with that.

@nyalldawson , nice, +1 to merge, with the hope you'll execute a similar cleanup with the edit and view menus too 😉
