This PR switches from the GTK FileChooserDialog to FileChooserNative, which functions the same in most cases (it just falls back to a FileChooserDialog), but also adds support for the XDG Document Portal. That makes it integrate better into non-GTK desktops like KDE and makes it possible to create a Flatpak build of Praat for easier distribution.

Thank you for your contribution. I will try out this patch in the coming weeks as I am a KDE user myself

Thank you. For some extra information, it defaults to the same GTK dialog in most cases, so you would need to add the environment variable GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 to get any visible difference.
