WIP: [Kate] Make the user's home folder the default file picker location in Windows

The file picker uses the working directory as the default location, and it was previously set to the installation folder, which is not very useful as an initial location.

This patch sets the shortcut's working directory to %USERPROFILE% to mirror the behavior in linux (default location is the home folder).
