Description
### Tested versions
v4.4.dev7.official [46c8f8c5c]
### System information
Operating System: Kubuntu 24.04 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.11 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0 Qt Version: 5.15.13 Kernel Version: 6.8.0-49-generic (64-bit)
### Issue description
Shortcut key (ALT+F) for the FileSystem toggle tab when docked at the Bottom Panels, conflicts with a list of other defaults. More specifically with the code folding ALT+F in the Script Editor.
I believe a good choice would be ALT+T since it is not used but could be anything else (E.g. ALT+L).
Please see images below.
### Steps to reproduce
- Change the FileSystem dock to Bottom Panels
- Focus caret inside an open Script.
- Press ALT+F, (notice it does not close the FileSystem tab but will fold code instead.)
- All the other Bottom Panel keys work regardless where the caret focus is.
### Minimal reproduction project (MRP)


Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the conflict in the Godot editor by docking FileSystem in the Bottom Panel, focusing a script, and pressing Alt+F. Trace the shortcut handling for the FileSystem panel and Script Editor code folding, then choose an unused replacement and verify that both panel toggling and code folding work without conflict.
