A modified version of [FileDialog] used by the editor.
[EditorFileDialog] is an enhanced version of [FileDialog] available only to editor plugins. Additional features include list of favorited/recent files and the ability to see files as thumbnails grid instead of list.
Adds a comma-delimited file name [param filter] option to the [EditorFileDialog] with an optional [param description], which restricts what files can be picked.
A [param filter] should be of the form [code]"filename.extension"[/code], where filename and extension can be [code]*[/code] to match any string. Filters starting with [code].[/code] (i.e. empty filenames) are not allowed.
For example, a [param filter] of [code]"*.tscn, *.scn"[/code] and a [param description] of [code]"Scenes"[/code] results in filter text "Scenes (*.tscn, *.scn)".
Adds the given [param menu] to the side of the file dialog with the given [param title] text on top. Only one side menu is allowed.
Removes all filters except for "All Files (*)".
Returns the LineEdit for the selected file.

Returns the [code]VBoxContainer[/code] used to display the file system.
