#6196: New action hook for edit.php for plugin authors to add new filter field...

 Why?  If plugin authors want to be able to add a new field for filtering
 the posts on the "Manage->Posts" menu they can use this action hook to
 insert the form field before the submit button.

 Currently (2.5 beta 1) it is possible to add a field via the
 'restrict_manage_posts' action hook (see attached screenshot for example)
 but that is a cludgy solution at best and isn't good for user-friendly ui.

 (This would be a complement to ticket: #5899)
