FilesystemProvider: handle virtual paths

Christos Tsolakis requested to merge christos.tsolakis/async-paraview:improve-limit-directories into master

The functionality of !318 (merged) is moved to the fileprovider :

  • Allows to handle both local and remote locations in a single place.
  • Other microservices e.g. vtkDatafileMicroservice never see real paths since replacements happed on the server side.

Remember, microservices should NOT hold any state !

Other improvements:

  • We use simple string operations to replace paths this makes replacement faster since we only check the beginning of the path. Moreover, before it could replace non-root paths which is incorrect.
  • "/" holds all mapped places.
