Selections: allow transforming selection itself #1314

But not its contents, allowing moving the selection after making it or something.

This should be part of the transform tool, not the select tool like in Krita or other software. Transforms are expensive, so they should be kept local-only until applied.

Credit SadColor with suggesting.

Implemented as a side-effect of #1158, because transforming the selection itself just means unchecking all layers when transforming. There's an action Selection → Transform Selection Mask that will start a transform without selecting any layers to make this more convenient. Not bound to any key by default, but there for people who want to make use for it.
