[iOS/macOS] Files outside the sandbox, picked by pickFile(), can't be accessed by other library methods #28
Description
More precisely, in case of macOS this is true for files outside the app sandbox, for iOS it applies for files from iCloud. The problem is that current conversion of security-scoped URLs into string URLs returned by pickFile() looses the security-scope permissions.

[#28] iOS/macOS: Fixes the handling of security scopes by pickFile() …

As of v2.23.0 the issue is fixed for pickFile(), copyFile(), and exists(). Other functions, most probably, require additional fixes to correctly handle the special «Bookmark URLs» returned now by pickFile() on iOS & macOS (in the absence of these fixes other methods are not expected to crash in any dramatic way, most probably they'll just consider such URLs point to non-existing files).

Since v2.27.1 «Bookmark URLs» are, presumably, supported by readDir() and readdir() methods (implemented, pending to be tested).
