#11007: [LEGAL!] Shortcuts CLV code is actually from Santa's Gift Bag!

The code at [http://cgit.haiku-
os.org/haiku/tree/src/preferences/shortcuts/clv
src/preferences/shortcuts/clv] is a 100% match (excluding style, but John
changed that in hrev46776) for the Santa's Gift Bag code. May I remind
everyone that Santa's Gift Bag is under a
[https://github.com/HaikuArchives/SantasGiftBag/blob/master/LICENSE.md
really restrictive license] which includes the following clause:
>

distribute modified source, also feel free to do so, but do so in such a
manner that it is very clear what was modified, why, how, that it is not
an official Santa's Gift Bag release, and you are also required to keep
the documentation and license with any modified versions.
>
* We have not distributed the license along with the code.
* We have not distributed the documentation with the code.
* We did not mark the distribution as "contains modified SBG code"
* We did not mark what was modified and why.
Obviously going forward we should remove SGB and replace it with Be's
ColumnListView that Tracker, Debugger, and HaikuDepot use. What should be
done about the existing infringement and why, IANAL so I have no idea.
