Description
It should:
- Indicate supported file types (see https://github.com/scipp/ess/issues/501).
- Offer a dialogue for selecting a local file. There still needs to be an option to add files by path when running a remote Jupyter instance.
- Clearly indicate whether one or multiple files are supported.

Research direction
Start by locating the GUI file-parameter widget and reviewing issue 501 for supported file types. Check how the widget currently handles local paths and remote Jupyter sessions; done means supported types and single-versus-multiple selection are clear, local selection is available, and path entry still works remotely.
