## Summary

* Adds a "Copy location" item, after the "Copy" Context item and Edit Menu, which will attempt to copy the path of the fist item into clipboard.

## Reasoning
Most File Managers have this option through one or another way.
Also using the default Copy option often results in different behaviour depending on the target software, Konsole will take the path. Other Programs will use the URI. Which ultimately could lead to non optimal User Experience.

## Notes
* Should the target file **not** be on a local hard drive, this fallback to using the remote URL, feedback is wanted on that matter.
