Specify input action in Project Settings

Great plugin!
A suggestion for an improvement would be to be able to specify the name of the action used to toggle the visibility in Godot's Project Settings window. Much like this plugin does:

I'm not sure if changing the action's name from the project settings makes sense – it's also prone to typos.

Instead, you should create an action called cycle_debug_menu in the Input Map tab. This isn't done manually due to an editor bug that makes it not refresh automatically if I create it from a @tool script, so it's done at runtime instead:

godot-debug-menu/addons/debug_menu/debug_menu.gd

Lines 85 to 91 in 2d5d670

	if not InputMap.has_action("cycle_debug_menu"):
	# Create default input action if no user-defined override exists.
	# We can't do it in the editor plugin's activation code as it doesn't seem to work there.
	InputMap.add_action("cycle_debug_menu")
	var event := InputEventKey.new()
	event.keycode = KEY_F3
	InputMap.action_add_event("cycle_debug_menu", event)

This needs godotengine/godot#25865 to be fixed first.

Ah, I see. While I think it would be nice to specify the name of the input action, the important thing is that we can specify the actual bindings for input 👍
