Description:
The Open Recent file list (File -> Open Recent menu item) is not being populated. 

I am expecting the list to show a list of recently opened files.

How to repeat:
1. Open mysql workbench.
2. Connect to a connection
3. Use the File -> Open SQL Script command to open
4. (optionally close the script tab)
5. Check the File -> Open Recent menu - it is not possible.

Suggested fix:

Indeed, WB remembers last .mwb file opened, but NOT last .sql script file opened, at least not immediately after closing tab with this script.

Added handling of SQL scripts in Recent Files list.
