Suggestion to rework tabs/spaces commands

[Alexey-T]

For tabs/spaces work, currently app has the weird checkboxes in the "File Properties" dlg.

I suggest to make it like in Sublime Text and CudaText.

• make the "Tabs" or "Spaces" cell in the lower statusbar
• on clicking this cell, show dropdown menu with several check-items, and/or commands

CudaText has this

• if "tabs as spaces" on: statusbar cell name is "Spaces: 4" (4 is tab width)
• if "tabs as spaces" off: cell name is "Tabs: 4" (so cell is renamed)
• dropdown from this cell shows items:

The lowest 2 items are the same in CudaText and in SublimeText, so users like that.

• Convert ... to spaces
• Convert ... to tabs

Look at last version. I have fixed some Tabs logic, but without Status Bar using.

I will, but I need the compiled version (I am not a C++ man)
