[Colomban Wendling]

Add a Help button to *Find*, *Replace* and *Find in Files* dialogs.

The *Replace* dialog might be a problem because it has many buttons, so it 
takes a lot of place.  It's a little better when icons on buttons are not shown 
(which is the default under GNOME, but not MATE AFAIK), but it's worse in some 
locales where the *Search & Replace* label takes more space.  Opinions?

BTW, one can see that we have a *Close* button for *Find* and *Replace*, but a 
*Cancel* one for *Find in Files*.  Looks odd.
