[Pharo4] saveAs now uses save file dialog

Hi,

One of the things that is very confusing for people using Pharo is that there is no way to save the image to another directory
(or even know in which directory is is saved).

#386 now uses the standard saveAs dialog. (thanks to Nicolai Hess)

Further improvement:

=> it should be improved to have a name pre-set (like before, with the increasing number)
=> Of course the save as dialog could be improved, but it should be usable as it is.

yeap that is a very useful addition, great work Marcus. I have tested works very nicely and the way a beginner user would expect. Maybe it would be better if the file dialog was maximized to cover the entire Pharo window ? This is how other apps are doing this.
