Replace "Action" by something more explicit

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Now that I understand what are "Actions", I think you really should rename this.

Why not "Macros", or "Chained functions", ... something that make the user 
thinks "oh yeah, these are a way to group multiple functions".

Contextually, 'Actions' and 'Functions' have very similar meanings.

See what I mean ?

I considered in the past, but decided against it...though I can't for
the life of me remember why.

I'll get back to you on this one.

Let me refresh your memory on that matter...

http://puddletag.sourceforge.net/source/tut2.html
"Actions are just a bunch of functions run one after the other. In normal 
parlance they’d be called macros, but I like Mp3tag’s nomenclature."

If I were to assign names to different data manipulations that puddletag can 
perform I'd choose:

Action instead of "function" since the latter overlaps with scripting function. 
A word "action" really sounds like single operation, not a group of operations.

Macro. A set of actions.

Macro (selected). Same as macro but for selected cells. "Quick Action" is 
really unfortunate since it has been borrowed from Mp3tag yet does something 
unsimilar. Even if you decide not to change anything else "Action (selected)" 
is an improvement.

It's way past the time that I can rename it now.
