When users type a path in the file dialog path bar and click Add without selecting anything in the tree, the path bar text is now used as the selection. Previously, the path bar only navigated the tree view and users had to click items in the tree to select them.

Summary
When users type a path in the Sources tab file dialog path bar and click "Add" without selecting anything in the tree, nothing happens. This is because the path bar was only used for navigation - users had to click items in the tree to select them, with no UI indication of this.
This PR modifies
selected_paths()infiledialog.pyto fall back to the path bar text when no tree items are selected, allowing users to directly add a path by typing it.Test plan
