Improve physical keyboard support #6378

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When using physical keyboard (or remote on Android TV) and browsing through files and directories, it is impossible to access Share button and Context menu button (3 dots).

Describe the solution you'd like

I think it should be sufficient to add support for left/ right arrow keys. When a directory or file is selected (with up/ down arrows), clicking right should select Share button, clicking right again would go to Context menu button.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Using a mouse or touch screen is an option, of course. But sometimes it's not as easy as one might think (again: Android TV).

Additional context

If you need more info, please ping me. I'm happy to provide more details.

Additional info

I can try implementing this myself and provide a pull request - but please point me to relevant parts of application code. I've tried finding them myself, but I'm not Android Java dev so it's hard for me to find a good starting point.
