Suggested place of pop-up capture mode

As suggested in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=462780#c1, taking screenshot of window should always include its popup. And the capture setting "Capture the current pop-up only" seems to be placed in wrong place. As it is determining an area of capturing, it should go to the selection mode buttons. See screenshot.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open main app window

OBSERVED RESULT
See that "Capture the current pop-up only" is in Capture Setting section and this is confusing.

EXPECTED RESULT
In the "Take a new screenshot" section another one button should be added for this (see screenshot).

The issue with moving it to a capture mode is that it applies to both Active Window and Window Under Cursor modes.
