Hi there, I cant find how i can edit default TypeEditor values. In [source code](https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/blob/5ca1ad8266304a5738b3611339804c6821e09bcf/src/main/java/org/jabref/gui/fieldeditors/TypeEditorViewModel.java#LL15C8-L15C8) see that they’re constant defined. Pls tell me, how I can add custom value for easy select
