Support opening multiple files at once

Use case: send multiple mp3s to a media player app so that it plays them all in sequence.

hey @patrakov

Even though the code to open multiple files might be just a one liner, I think this will require some UX / flow design work. Currently, files are opened in non-selection mode by tapping the file, but, when multiple files are selected you can no longer do that because tapping is used for selection in this mode.

The first that comes to mind would be to add another button to the action bar in selection-mode, but we are quickly running out of space there (and visual clarity).

@bertob any thoughts?

Sounds like the most obvious thing to try to me
