Subject: [PATCH] platform: PathPromptOptions.allowed_extensions; Linux portal
 glob filter

The system file pickers can restrict the choosable files to the
extensions the host wants (project import: .ove/.otio/.fcpxml;
export: the chosen format). Linux's ashpd OpenFileRequest applies a
FileFilter of glob patterns per extension; empty = no restriction.
