RFC: support filetype selection in gui open window and consider b:browsefilter

:h browsefilter says

							*browsefilter*
For MS Windows and GTK, you can modify the filters that are used in the browse
dialog.  By setting the g:browsefilter or b:browsefilter variables, you can
change the filters globally or locally to the buffer.  The variable is set to
a string in the format "{filter label}\t{pattern};{pattern}\n" where {filter
label} is the text that appears in the "Files of Type" comboBox, and {pattern}
is the pattern which filters the filenames.  Several patterns can be given,
separated by ';'.

LibreOffice (tested with v6.1) under macOS supports similar functionality.

Could MacVim support this as well and take b:browsefilter into account?

There are 52 filetype plugins in $VIMRUNTIME which define b:browsefilter.

❯ ag -l browsefilter | wc -l
      52

I noticed that many macOS apps gray out those filetypes they do not support in the open file dialog window but do not provide a pulldown menu to change the filter.

If this is more complicated to implement (non-standard open dialog window), feel free to close this issue since this is not very important for me.

Beginne mit :h browsefilter und der MacVim-GUI-Implementierung für das Öffnen von Fenstern und untersuche anschließend die Filetype-Plugins, die b:browsefilter definieren. Fertig ist die Arbeit, wenn der Öffnen-Dialog unter macOS die Auswahl des Filetypes unterstützt und lokale b:browsefilter-Werte des Buffers berücksichtigt.
