Moving and reorganizing groups of shapekeys
More convenient UI layout

Various small bug fixes
Slight performance increase
V1.0.1 - Minor Change
Temporarily disable x-mirroring in edit mode when using "Copy and Split Shakekey" to prevent both sides from getting operated on for both left and right.
V1.0 - Full Release
Added "Copy and Split Shakekey" option that will make a copy of the active shapekey for the left and right half.
Changed UI slightly and how sorting works under the hood to be more reliable and update immediately.
Fixed bug with copying a shapekey in edit mode causing shapekey names to be offset. This was caused by not switching modes during the operation. Now every operation enforced the mode that is needed so this should never happen again.
Fixed bug where binned shapekey was saved for the scene instead of the individual object.
V0.3 - Initial Test Release
