Enter Play Mode with F5 key

Woaaah! Been waiting for this feature since VB5.. to have unity enter playmode with F5 key!
*Same key can be used to stop play mode also

Founded pretty much ready script from unity answers,
removed the secondary shortcut and added check for if in playmode, then dont try saving..
(It could be customized to have separate Escape key for exit playmode too)

source: “F5 to play/stop”
https://github.com/UnityCommunity/UnityLibrary/blob/master/Assets/Scripts/Editor/EditorShortCutKeys.cs

Next dream:
– Pressing F5 in VisualStudio would switch to unity/compile scripts, then enter playmode! (all with 1 keypress from vs)
