Desktop/WebUI Files page design enhancements

A few modifications For Your Consideration …

  • Add "ipfs/" to the front end of the file name, to clarify the relationship to the ipfs universe (grayed out, since it isn't clickable), and include the utiity "ellipsis button"
  • Show the current CID below the file name (or home)
  • Where applicable, refresh the CID with a quick fade-out / fade-in animation whenever it changes, to reinforce its ephemeral nature (see storyboard image below)
  • Create a callout which summarizes "Your IPFS contributions," and fold the "Add" button into it
  • For those who are confused that a file or folder added via command line doesn't appear in the file list, add a helpful utility at the bottom which prompts the user to add it to their local MFS instance (feel free to rewrite if my wording is inaccurate)
