Add a "Edit next" and "Edit previous" button in the editing dialogs of videos and meta. #144

When we are editing a single video or meta card, we select the edit option, make the changes, and click the save button, which apply the changes and close the edit dialog. But if you are going to edit a lot of videos that are in a sequence (like when a whole group of videos where add), you will repeat this procedure for each one that are on the list, by closing and opening the edit dialog many times.

Some programs like medianizer or game collector, uses a interesting feature in the editing dialogs, for when you are editing data that are on a sequence. Instead of just the commo save and cancel buttons, there is also a "next" and "previous" buttons (normally represented by a right and left arrows). What the buttons does is to save the changes and then load the next item in the list (or the previous one), instead of closing the dialog. It may not look like much, but it does help a little when you are editing items in a sequence, specially when there is a lot of items. It also prevents you from missing an item by selecting the wrong one.

The sequence would have to follow the same one that are currently in the Tab, respecting the filter and sorting options selected.

Yes, this is an interesting feature. Will be added later.
