Add button "Edit Metadata of this file" to Filelist module

Description
The file list currently lacks a dedicated button for editing the file metadata.
In order to edit a file's metadata, one has either to use the clickmenu or know that the filename itself is linked to the corresponding editing mask. In order to enhance UX, a dedicated button for that should be added to the control buttons.

As one feedback from the last UXW we removed one of the two buttons.
Also the title is ever linked to edit mode, in all views and for all records. e.g. also the title of a content element in the list view.
The problem is to have two edit buttons in one row, two buttons wich looks very equal but with different targets. The user never can decide which button is the correct one for the task he is working on. The chance is 50% to hit the correct button. Also a title or tooltip is not helpful. This is like "murphys law", you click automatic on the wrong button ;)
I would suggest to discuss this again at the upcoming UXW. I will put this topic on my list.
The following screenshot shows the problem with this issue:
- the folders need an empty box (no big problem)
- in case of an editable file, we have two buttons. both looks very similar. We need two icons which are more distinguishable
- A second issue is the replace icons, which currently looks like a QRCode, maybe we can replace this also. I will talk to Benji, maybe he can create new icons for this issue.
