Problems with digikam 5.7.0 on MacOSX and external NTFS USB disks

[Maik Qualmann]

It could also be related to the Qt-file dialog we use in digiKam-5.7.0. In 
digiKam-5.8.0 it is possible to choose the native system file dialog in the 
settings under Miscellaneous. Please test this with digiKam-5.8.0.
