Convert filter expressions preference data to a UAT.
The filter expressions data was shoved into the preference file in a
very loose, non-arrayed form. It's much easier to manage in code
(and for users in a separate file) as a UAT.
The GTK GUI was hacked to use the existing UAT dialog rather than
rewrite the pref_filter_expressions.c to support a UAT. Should
be okay since it's deprecated.
