Subject: [PATCH] Add shortcuts in tooltips to the animation editor's
 play/pause buttons

Shortcuts for these buttons don't make use of the Button shortcut
system, so that they work globally (even if the animation editor is
not focused). Therefore, we need to add the shortcut to the tooltip manually.
