Relax extension checking on file validators so that they are just a suggestion

Description

This will allow a user to specify a file that they know is of the correct format but doesn't have the required extension.

File dialogs will need an 'all files' option and save properties should automatically append the first extension if one doesn't exist.

(In [3545]) Changes to FileValidator so that extensions are no longer mandated, they are a suggestion. A warning is issued if the current extension does not match those stored but the string is still marked as valid. This required changes to LoadRaw and LoadLog so that they don't rely on extensions any longer. Re #1053

(In [3546]) Updated browse buttons on dialogs to also show all files when loading and also appends the selected extension if none is typed on saving. Also fixed alignment issue with multiple browse buttons. Re #1053
