Add support for further desktop standards, for example the default
application to open a file type (
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/mime-apps-spec/latest/ar01s04.html).

Generate a file open association per application instead of per extension,
so each application appears in Freedesktop's right-click list and "Open
with" list only once. I already sent patches for this long ago, but I don't
think people understood them:
