Summary: FastOpen - change Project ComboBox into HistoryTextField

Initial Comment:
The ComboBox is useless when you have a lot of projects
- it is not very keyboard friendly at all. Arrowkeying
through it causes the PV to open each one, we don't
want that. You can't use letters to jump to certain
projects.

It would be better to have a historytextfield, just
like for the fastopen file textfield, except for
entering project names (or group names) from the
keyboard. And then <return> should cause the project to
change.

I don't like using a mouse to change projects. It would be
nice to have an option from the fastopen options for a more
keyboard friendly UI.

Use mouse to change project. typing is not appropriate for
this. History is to remember last text not to iterate thru a
list.
