window: Add tablet pad controller for common actions

Since nautilus is an important tool in the workflow of designers
and other users of graphics tablets, make tablet pads useful by
mapping a sensible set of actions that are not directly accessible
with the stylus nor immediately require keyboard input.

Tablet pads may vary a lot between devices, from 4 to 10+ buttons,
besides rings/strips and multiple modes. It doesn't make a lot of
sense for nautilus to handle those in detail, so this patch provides
a mile-high support that should work reasonably well across the
range of devices. Actions are made to apply on all modes, and the
most sensible/less reachable options are assigned to lower button
numbers.
