Embed file actions and annotation controls into the header bar #1

Hi, firstly really cool project. My main complaint with Papers has always been the lack of tabs and that it doesn't show text annotations without clicking on them, and this basically solves both of those.

I wanted to suggest embedding the file actions and annotation controls into the header bar, similar to native Gnome apps, aligning with the GNOME HIG. Would this be something you'd be interested in? I've played around with the code and it's seems fairly simple to implement. The changes would just be in window.py, since the header bar already uses Adw.HeaderBar I just removed the ribbon creation since it's contents would now be in the top bar and rearranged the widgets while still keeping the page and zoom labels in the center.

If this is something you'd be interested in I'd be happy to open a PR, but totally cool if this isn't the style you're going for.

Thanks!
