Add a new menu entry for time selection image

This entry affects everything except for the rulers in the player and timeline Here is a screenshot with some examples: image

Notes from the Design Discussion:

default to time clock format:

Not done - currently defaults to SMPTE DF - which was the previous display. I can change it, but I am concerned that some people will be surprised when they upgrade Shotcut and the time display changes.

context menu on the time display:

Not implemented. I made a Settings menu entry. I could also add a context menu on the time entry text field in the play if that is helpful. But people should be aware that it affects the entire application.

try to affect everywhere time is displayed:

Done - with the exception of the Rulers. I can also change the rulers. But I notice that there is some "fudge factor" logic that we would have to overcome. I think that is probably to get around rounding errors.

input parsing as well based on MLT’s interpretation of string to time:

Done
