    useraction: port away from DEF macros · 282e79c1
    Nate Graham authored and Vlad Zahorodnii's avatar Vlad Zahorodnii committed
    Currently, defining shortcuts in useractions.cpp is done using one of
    six macros, some of which allow the name that ends up as the key in
    the config file to be autogenerated from an untranslated form of the
    user-facing text.
    
    Whenever a shortcut using one of these macros is renamed, the key in the
    config file changes too, so users lose any custom shortcuts they had
    assigned.
    
    To avoid this, developers need to know that they have to switch to the
    relevant macro that allows the name and description to be defined
    separately, remember to do so, and manually set a name that matches the
    old user-facing text. This can be forgotten, is not obvious to new
    developers, and is a subtle source of user-facing bugs.
    
    In addition the macros are largely unnecessary, as they are wrappers 
    around a custom function. We can just call the custom function 
    ourselves.
    
    This commit ports away from the macros and calls the initShortcut()
    instead, which resolves both issues.
