Make default behavior of "Publish"/"Publish all" buttons configurable #107

Description

As described by @baschny in #guild-ux:

There are some flaws in the publishing process that lead to frustration. One particular irritation is that not „everything“ is published, because the editors don’t perceive the difference between the „publish“ (big orange) and the „publish all“ (other pages also affected = small orange arrow). For my editors I would propose to switch the meaning: big button = „Publish all“ because in 90% the cases thats what you want to do. And hide the „Publish only this page“ inside the arrow dropdown menu. Doesn’t anyone of you have the same „problem“?

for example just today: editor creates a „folder“ node and inside of the folder he creates his article.. he writes it up and hits „publish“.. but nothing is shown because its parent isn’t published.. I end up with buggy entries in ES, the list view shows the article but the link is incorrect (parentPath does not exist) etc..

@kitsunet's suggestion, how to proceed with this:

the reasonable way is: configurable -> deprecate old behavior -> change behavior

This still needs discussion and probably won't be part of the current rewrite but could be considered for future development. Thus this issue is kept as a reminder.
