Use spyder New and Open file options instead of duplicanting for Notebook #134

@spyder-ide/core-developers maybe we should really use the normal open dialog and if the plugin is installed, we should be able (via some api) to ask the user if they want to open as text or as a notebook.

This would really avoid having all this duplicates. We could add an extra thing on the open dialog (but this would require creating a custom Open dialog for each OS) so that we have a checkbox or something that reads, open as text, so that the default is to open as a notebook.

I think no one really opens a notebook as text, so why bother with that? The current UI is very unfriendly :-\ and error prone. Users don't want 2 separate set of menus, open save, and close should be one and only one and act depending on what dock/pane send the request.
