Description:
From MySQL for Excel 1.3.0 feedback.
The MySqlListView control must allow using the <CTRL>+<A> key combination to select all tables and views contained in the DB objects selection panel.

How to repeat:
1. Open MySQL for Excel.
2. Select any schema containing tables and views.
3. Click on any node in the DB objects selection list.
4. Hit <CTRL>+<A> combination, note nothing happens and if you want to select multiple nodes you must hold the <SHIFT> or <CTRL> key and use mouse clicks, arrow keys or <PgUp>/<PgDwn> keys.

Suggested fix:
Catch the <CTRL>+<A> combination to select all tables and views in the list but excluding stored procedures since they are not allowed in a multiple selection by design.

Implemented the use of <CTRL>+<A> as a shortcut in the list of database objects to select all MySQL tables and views.

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL for Excel 1.3.1 release, and here's the changelog entry:

"Control" + "A" now selects all tables and views in the "Database Objects"
selection panel.

Thank you for the bug report.
