Summary: Add option to configure keyboard shortcut of "Show Aside Preview" in KDE FilePicker

Description:
In KDE FilePicker you can click options button and choose "Show Aside Preview". This comes especially useful while doing some graphics editing or creating presentations, when you want to be sure if you are opening/adding correct image.
It would be great if Aside Preview could be toggled with one configurable keystroke.
By KDE FilePicker I mean window that shows when you run that command:

Code: Select all

kdialog --getopenfilename ./

There is no need for any default shortcut for that action - just a way to assign custom one will be enough.

Rationale:
Mainly consistency. Users already may toggle visibility of hidden files (Alt+.) or "Places" pane (F9). But visibility of Bookmarks and Aside Preview can not be toggled with keyboard shortcut and - as far as I know - there is no way to assign keyboard shortcut for these actions (apart from editing source code). I can't see any reason for that.
