Remove/extend "Include apps from the current workspace only" #6

First of all thanks for resolving my request #5 !
Unfortunately with the commit "Apply features to Window Switcher as well " this extension now limits isolation feature comparing to vanilla GNOME.

With original GNOME I can use "Super"+"Tab" for "Applications Switching" on all workspaces

gsettings get org.gnome.shell.app-switcher current-workspace-only

false

and "Alt"+"Tab" for "Windows Switching" on a current workspace only

gsettings get org.gnome.shell.window-switcher current-workspace-only

true

Currently "Alt+Tab mod" overrides both of those settings with a single value.

I'm not entirely sure whether this "isolation" option is needed for extension. Nowadays "app-switcher" isolation could be set not only with dconf keys but also with the native "Settings" app ("Multitasking" > Application Switching")

Just added separate settings for the window switcher because that is easier since I only need to add some code rather than change existing code and worry about compatibility 🤷‍♂️
