[Feature request] Add an option to open Favorites view by default

[gabrc52]

Title says all, it would be a nice enhancement to have

I second this request. I recently wrote a short piece about this in my personal website: "The Advanced MATE Menu (mate-menu.py) is actually more comfortable and more easily customizable than the default Brisk menu. [...] You will probably want to enable option "Always start with favorites pane", which should actually be the default, like in KDE, Xfce's Whisker Menu and Microsoft Windows 10. Otherwise, you have to click once more very often to start the most-used applications, which kind of defeats the concept of "favourites". Why MATE's Brisk menu does not do or allow that, is beyond me."

A simple way to fix this would be to move Favorites to the top so the categories pane displays: Favorites, All, Accessories, etc.

This. It is the only reason I don't use the brisk menu.

This commit did the trick for me: https://github.com/gabrc52/brisk-menu/commit/d88736673e6d32943b6e1c28cb634af85c9c4906

+1 for this feature @gabrc52. It could be activated by a non-default setting in /com/solus-project/brisk-menu/favourites-first
