Add commands to Move the current tab group right/left/above/below

[malecjan]

Hotkeys for swapping panes up, right, left, left most, etc.

Use case or problem:

For example in Andy mode:

@malecjan

precise reordering among nested pages is not possible yet.

And desired keyboard-only (mouseless) controllability in general.
Perhaps, corresponding commands could be also utilized by plugins.

Proposed solution:

Add customizable hotkeys and palette commands:

• “Swap pane left”
• “Swap pane left most”
• “Swap pane right”
• “Swap pane down”
• etc

Works e.g. in EmEditor (tabbed interface): http://www.emeditor.org/en/cmd_window_window_move_next.html

Current workaround:

Drag by mouse. In some cases it is not reliable/precise enough and unlike hotkeys, cannot be easily automated in Keyboard Maestro or AutoHotkey.

• This would create ergonomic workaround for:
  • Open file in new pane on the left side of active pane
  • Always open notes to the left
  • Ability to split vertically above or below; ability to split horizontally left or right - #3
• This would partially solve: Optional default behavior to open new links in the left-most pane (replacing existing pane)
• Andy mode with fixed (always displayed) left most pane: Andy Matuschak mode - V2.7 (updated for 0.7+ new panes) - #66 by death.au
