D12206: Don't show "Open With" for folders, as was apparently originally intended

  - Open with "Sublime Text" / "Atom"
  - Open with "K4DirStat"
  - Open with "Clementine"
  
  Comix, Gwenview, VLC, $MediaPlayer will usually "autoplay" the next file in a folder, so this won't really affect those apps.
  
  Do we really need these apps to define a context menu "Action"?  "Right click > Actions > Open with Sublime Text" seems weird.
  
  You also lose the ability for a user to open with any application that supports it, rather than just the apps that define it in their `share/applications/app.metadata`.
  
  - Oddly, XFCE's Thunar doesn't show an "Open with" menu.
  - Does Gnome's Nautilus not show it either?
  - Does Window's File Explorer not show it?
  - Does OS X's file manager not show it?
