Description
### Use case description
Starting with Android Q, access to random local files is forbidden unless the Storage Access Framework is used (see e.g. #6039). To simplify debugging of local files with our demo app, we should add an option to open a file this way. On the other hand, we no longer need to request permission to read files.
