Keymap: add generally useful popups to F-Keys 1..4

This allows key bindings: link/append and user-preferences
to be accessed via keys - without having to assign keys to each action.

- F1: Context sensitive help.
- F2: File Context Menu.
- F3: Search.
- F4: Window Context Menu.

Other keys F5..10, remain free,
ideally they can be kept for user actions.
