Resolves: #17228

This PR implements a shortcutable "pause and select" action. By default this is set to Ctrl+Space for Windows/Linux, Alt+Space for MacOS. The action will select the current ChordRest in the last selected stave (or the top stave if nothing was selected).

Works great, thanks!

Regarding the action name in Preferences, I think the word "current" is a bit confusing. Normally that means "the thing that is already selected".

How about this instead?

"Pause and select chord or rest at playback position"

I don't think it's necessary to say "playback" twice, as in:

"Pause playback and select chord or rest at playback position"

@shoogle Perhaps even more concise: Pause and select playback position

Saying note/chord/rest every time we mean 'a place in the score' adds length and we aren't consistent about listing all three.
