Use QuickList on Linux instead of/in addition to tray icon #3542

Checklist:

OS: Linux (elementary OS 5.0 Juno)

GPMDP Version: 4.6.1

Issue Descriptions:

On many Linux distributions (including elementary OS, Pop!_OS, Fedora, and GNOME by default) there is no support for "tray icons" anymore. Instead, many modern Linux desktops support "QuickLists" as context menus on the app icons. Static Quicklists are widely supported and are even a FreeDesktop.org standard via the Desktop Entry Specification's "Actions". Ubuntu, elementary OS, and other OSes also support dynamic QuickLists via the LibUnity LauncherAPI if dynamic content is desired, though I imagine static would be good enough.
