Move the focus to the filter box in the dialog

In the Add Git Repositories Dialog the initial focus is set to the Directory Text Control, which is usually not changed.

I'd prefer to set the focus to the filter text for filtering the repositories.

See attached screenshot.

+1 IMHO changing the directory is not so common, as changing the filter.
Comment 3 Simon Scholz CLA 2015-09-03 05:37:55 EDT 
Didn't know that you already opened a Bug for this issue, Lars.

But IMHO this would be a nice usability improvement, since the directory is generally already given and in order to change it a usual user rather uses the Browse button for it.

Also added the bugday tag, because this change is pretty easy.
