termux-storage-getfile returns immediately. This makes it hard to use in a script because the script continues before the user has selected a file from the dialog. termux-storage-getfile should only return after the user has selected a file, and should have return value to indicate if user cancelled operation or not.

Research direction
Locate the implementation and entry point for termux-storage-getfile, then inspect how it launches and waits for the selection dialog. Reproduce a script invocation; done means the command waits for the user's choice and reports cancellation versus selection through its return value.
