[gpodder-devel] Get rid of the URL entry box?

Sorry for being late, but how about having a square "+" button next to
"Check for Updates"?  Or on the toolbar.  Or on the toolbar when it's
enabled, and in the channel list when the toolbar is disabled.

In my experience, this and "Copy episodes to device" are the most used
actions, but now they're hidden somewhere in the middle of a quite
complicated menu, instead of being the first two options in the first
menu.

>> Here is a good compromise that I propose:
>>
>> *) The menu item (and Ctrl+L) will _always_ open the URL entry dialog
>> *) The URL entry box will be made available as advanced config option
>> *) The URL entry box option will default to disabled/hidden
>>
>> This way, even when the URL entry box is shown, we show the dialog,
>> eliminating the confusion of just focusing an already visible entry.
>>
>> Any objections?
