Tonight's work:
* Change some strings according to Dave's advice.
* Add checkbox on the Database node.
* Honour the schema restriction in the treeview.
* Re-accept schema only and table only dump.
* Enable/Disable options depending on pg_dump release.

I tried the whole new layout (Database / Schemas / each schema / Tables /each
table), but it doesn't feel right. I think the old layout with the new
checkbox on the Database node is much better.

TODO:
* Only the click on the checkbox should change the state of the object
* Use icons with the checkbox?
* Toggle Selection button?
* Check the UI on Mac and Windows.
