Show checkbox where the favorite star is now

[MorrisJobke]

As discussed at the conf:

• show the checkbox for selecting an element where currently the star icon is
• add a little star indicator at the top right of the mime type/thumbnail (as on Android and iOS)
• add the "Favourite" action to the three dots menu

@danxuliu @ChristophWurst Does one of you want to look into this?

I will take care of this in the next days.

An important addition is that the filetype icon / preview should then also be part of the clickable area to open the file / folder.

@danxuliu let me know when there’s something to review. :)

@jancborchardt I have started to implement this but as you can imagine there are several approaches for the CSS that would work. So any preference with respect to floats, absolute positions and things like that? Although probably someone else with good CSS knowledge will have to clean up my mess anyway :-P

An important addition is that the filetype icon / preview should then also be part of the clickable area to open the file / folder.

I assume that the star indicator would not be clickable given that the Favourite action will be now in the three dots menu, right? Otherwise making the star indicator clickable and at the same time using the filetype icon / preview to open the file / folder would be very error prone.

Exactly, the favorite star would only be an indicator, not clickable. :)
