Edit menu's items do not work when the Hierarchy window is floating
How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached “Hierarchy test” project
2. Open the “SampleScene” scene
3. Open the Game view
4. Undock the Hierarchy
5. Focus on the Game view (or any other window than Scene View and Hierarchy)
6. Select the "Cube" GameObject in the Hierarchy
7. In the main menu bar, go to “Edit” → “Duplicate”
8. Observe the Hierarchy window
Expected result: The cube duplicates
Actual result: The cube does not duplicate

Resolution Note:
The Edit menu items is executed on the current focused view and when clicking the main menu the focus is changed from the Hierarchy to the last view in the Main Window that had focus before the floating Hierarchy window. The 'Duplicate' menu for the selected GameObject item only works when the Scene view or the Hierarchy view has focus.
The user can use the keyboard shortcut to duplicate or other edit menu items when having a floating Hierarchy.
