Make "Open DevTools in Web Browser" a top-level command

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I only use DevTools in the web browser, and having to go through an additional menu for that becomes annoying over time :)

Describe the solution you'd like
It'd be great to have the "Open DevTools in Web Browser" command be accessible on a top-level through ⌘+⇧+P (default shortcut)

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context
I think it also makes sense to have it since we have all the other ones as top-level AFAIK

Have you tried setting the dart.devToolsLocation setting?

"dart.devToolsLocation": {
	"default": "external"
},

This will cause DevTools to always open externally. That way you can just use the button on the toolbar for Inspector, or any of the existing DevTools commands that take you directly to the page you want.

Oh, thanks! This is a great workaround; I still occasionally use the inspector in Code itself, though, so it'd be nice to eventually have this :)

@f-person I don't know if it helps, but you can set a different option for each section:

"dart.devToolsLocation": {
	"inspector": "beside",
	"default": "external"
}

Yeah, I noticed this and did something similar already, but didn't know I could just specify the default; that's great, thanks! I do think it'd still be nice to add it, though :)
