Subject: [PATCH] Control bar: buttons isolate the selected object and exit
 isolation mode

The Control bar had no isolation controls. In isolation mode it now
shows an Exit Isolation Mode button (`object.exitIsolation`), except
while a pattern is edited: the isolation bar's Done and Cancel end
that edit. Outside isolation mode, with one group, compound path,
path, image, mesh or placed file selected, it shows an Isolate
Selected Object button (`object.isolate`). After a Direct Selection
click on a path inside a group, the button isolates that path. An
envelope's contents get no button: for them the Control bar shows the
envelope's Edit Envelope and Edit Contents buttons.

The button offers the kinds of object that the Selection tool's
double-click isolates. The double-click's check moves unchanged into
`vectorcraft_tools::select::isolates`, and both use it.

   - Dialogs open with their first field focused and its value selected: type a value and press Enter (Move, Rotate, Scale…). A dialog opened from a menu takes the keyboard focus every time it opens, not only the first (#1367), and one whose first field starts greyed out (Blend Options on Smooth Color, Layers Panel Options) gives the focus to that field once it is enabled (#1395). Number fields in panels, the Control bar and dialogs (preferences too) step with Up/Down, or with the mouse wheel over the focused field (#485: a notch a step; the panel under it then stays put, and an unfocused field leaves the wheel to scrolling) (Shift: ten, Ctrl/Cmd: a tenth of their unit), applied at once.
   - Scrubby labels (#400, beyond Illustrator, as in Photoshop): dragging a numeric field's label left or right (the ↔ cursor shows over it) steps the value one unit every 2 points (Shift: ten, Ctrl/Cmd: a tenth; counts stay whole), in the field's unit and within its limits, applied live as the art follows; the whole drag is one undo step and Escape puts the value back. A click on the label focuses the field; the text box itself never scrubs, and a field with no label doesn't. Text labels before a field (Transform, Properties, Control bar, Stroke, Transparency, form rows in dialogs) and the Character and Paragraph panels' icons act as labels. Preferences › General › Scrub Numeric Fields by Dragging (on by default) turns it off.
   - The Control bar's underlined Transform link opens the Transform panel in a popover under it (reference point, X/Y/W/H, Rotate and Shear with their icons and angle presets, flips, shape properties, Scale Corners and Scale Strokes & Effects), as its Stroke link does the Stroke panel; X/Y/W/H also show inline while the bar has room. The reference point locator is nine squares, the outer eight joined around the box.
+  - In isolation mode the Control bar has an Exit Isolation Mode button (`object.exitIsolation`), except while a pattern is edited. Outside isolation mode, with one group, compound path, path, image, mesh or placed file selected, it has an Isolate Selected Object button (`object.isolate`), which also isolates a path inside a group that Direct Selection selected.
   - Tab shows and hides the panels (in the Type tool it types a tab) without moving the keyboard focus onto a field, so the next shortcut or letter still works; in dialogs and panel fields it moves between fields.
   - Cmd/Ctrl+A follows the keyboard: in a panel, dialog or search field it selects the field's text, while the Type tool edits it selects all of that text (also `select.all` over MCP), and only otherwise every object. On macOS the menu bar's Select All, Cut, Copy and Paste (keys or clicks) act on a focused field too, and elsewhere the in-window menus' do: the field that had the keyboard when the menu opened gets them, with its selection, and the keyboard back (#516). Not yet: Select All across threaded frames (one frame's text is selected).
   - Shortcut sets other apps save as text (`.kys`) open in Import Shortcut Set from File › Open, from Edit › Keyboard Shortcuts › Import… in the desktop app, or from a drop on the window. It matches each entry to a tool, command or panel by name and decodes the file's key and modifier codes where VectorCraft's default shortcuts agree on them; the user answers the rest, and Apply fills the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog's working set. The answers are kept with the preferences for the next import (`shortcutSet.read`, `importMatches.*`).
