feat(developer): Make it easier to create a new project and attach an existing KMN file to it feat:

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I understand that in version 17 the recommended model is to have only one keyboard per project. To implement this in my existing projects, I need to create some new projects for some of my keyboards. The process of doing this is cumbersome, for when you create a new project it assumes you want to create a keyboard at the same time. Instead of creating a new keyboard, I should be able to select an existing keyboard and move it from the folder it was into the same folder as my new project.

I can do this by creating a new keyboard with the same name as my existing keyboard file, saving the new project and closing Keyman developer, then copying my existing keyboard into the new project folder, overwriting the empty keyboard file I just created. But this is a cumbersome process.

Describe the solution you'd like

When I create a new project, offer the choice of selecting an existing keyboard file to import into this new project
