Add a keyboard shortcut to launch the screenshot app.
Default is Super + Print

This is useful as an alternative to having to remember all of the shortcuts for screen, window, area and their clipboard variants or just in general if you prefer the interactive way.
As a bonus it also has the save dialog.
(As prior art: e.g. GNOME launches its interactive UI by default for the Print key, windows has snipping tool, etc.)

Needs to be added to the keyboard plug

Please do not merge this. I'd really like to release 8.0.4 as a hotfix before the OS 8 release

It doesn't work on OS 8. Screenshot is flatpak here.

  1. You should change it to flatpak run io.elementary.screenshot
  2. Maybe make command editable? Some user might want to use different screenshot tool and IMO we shouldn't hardcode it.
