Implement a process-local VFS to enable grouping together arbitrary
URIs passed via program arguments, DnD, or the file open dialog.
This VFS contains FivCollectionFile objects, which act as "simple"
proxies over arbitrary GFiles. Their true URIs may be retrieved
through the "standard::target-uri" attribute, in a similar way to
GVfs's "recent" and "trash" backends.
(The main reason we proxy rather than just hackishly return foreign
GFiles from the VFS is that loading them would switch the current
directory, and break iteration as a result.
We could also keep the collection outside of GVfs, but that would
result in considerable special-casing, and the author wouldn't gain
intimate knowledge of GIO.)
There is no perceived need to keep old collections when opening
new ones, so we simply change and reload the contents when needed.
Similarly, there is no intention to make the VFS writeable.
The process-locality of this and other URI schemes has proven to be
rather annoying when passing files to other applications,
however most of the resulting complexity appears to be essential
rather than accidental.
Note that the GTK+ file chooser widget is retarded, and doesn't
recognize URIs that lack the authority part in the location bar.
Linux has st_mtim (and an st_mtime macro),
macOS has st_mtimespec (and an st_mtime macro),
Windows has just st_mtime.
GFileInfo would be another option, though it seems unnecessary.
They fell back to gdk-pixbuf, then misrendered in the thumbnailer,
and crashed the program when loaded directly.
The second best we can do is scale them down, right after tiling,
which is a complex feature to add.
