D15580: [WIP] New annotation toolbar

  Some thoughts:
  
  - Instead of using a horizontal toolbar below the main toolbar, instead I might experiment with a vertical toolbar like the one shown in Gwenview's View mode. We could make the toolbar live inside the Reviews tab, which appears to be somewhat mis-named and already shows a list of all annotations. REASON: cramming everything into a horizontal toolbar seems impossible for a feature this rich; using a vertical toolbar provides us enough horizontal space to show labels for everything, and enough vertical space to easily hold everything. Also we re-use an existing UI element that's currently rather bare.
  
  - Show a button on the toolbar by default that holds the list of favorite annotations, and pre-populate it with the current set of default annotations. Label the button "Quick annotations". At the bottom of the list, add an entry that says something like, "Show advanced annotation settings" that will display the full vertical toolbar in the Reviews tab. REASON: This will make the whole annotations UI much more discoverable.
  
  - Remove "Favorites" button from the annotation toolbar (since it'll be on the main toolbar instead)
  
  - Rename "Add to favorites" to say "Add to quick annotations"
  
  - Given Okular's conservative Frameworks dependency policy, I need to marshall VDG resources ASAP for the icons. Do you have a full list of the icons we need?
