File filter for FileChooser with zenity does not work

Linux
1

When I set a file filter in my FileChooser on Linux with zenity, no files will be shown. I noticed that in the zenity gui the filter has the single quoted filter like '*.png' instead of plain *.png.

Removing the single quotes in juce_linux_FileChooser.cpp on line 138 makes it work again.

Ok, thanks, I'll update that.
