The default hotkey is Ctrl+L, as this is not bound by
default in the FP or symbol editor, and it is the hotkey
that is used to focus the address bar in web browsers,
which is a similar kind of action.
Short description:
Works for Symbol and Footprint Editor behind an advanced config option.
For Symbol Editor it is shown for a single item selection (library or symbol).
For Footprint Editor it is shown for a footprint selection.
(fp editor allows a single tree item selection only).
Option stays hidden if current frame has been modified.
Also small fix(?) for similar action to the project manager.
(Call for the Execution has moved inside the file loop.)

Using a boolean argument just leads to a lot of trailing booleans in the
function calls and is not user friendly. Instead, introduce PostAction()
to send an action that runs after the coroutine (equivalent to passing
false or the default argument), and leave RunAction as the immediate
execution function.
Previously, it was not always the edited footprint, but a footprint
selected from the library tree.
It was especially annoying when the footprint was loaded from the board editor:
The footprint was not the loaded footprint, but its copy from library.
Differentiates better between the EDA_ITEM IsModified(), referring to
items themselves changing and the EDA_SCREEN IsContentModified(),
referring to whether we have made any unsaved changes.
Some differences are due to difference between libraries being files
in symbol editor and directories in footprint editor, but this unifies
most of the rest.
It also dispenses with the save-to-library vs save-to-document distinction
in the GUI because it makes for too much variability in the GUI, was
implemented differently between the two editors, and isn't needed as much
anymore now that we have the highly visible infobar.
There was also an issue that the save-to-board icon occupies the same
location and has the same size/shape/colours as the Board Setup icon in
PCBNew.

One way to do this would have been to keep the Uuids in the editor
copy. However, this opens us up to errors if we forget a Save As or
export path and end up writing the Uuids out somewhere else.
In the end, it felt safer to store a map of the original Uuids and
restore them if we happen to save the editor footprint back to the
board.
