Open vifm with file from last edit buffer being selected

[vlcinsky]

I use https://github.com/tpope/vim-vinegar vim plugin and got used to the easy I can open file browser by simply clicking -.

But even without any special plugin, it is possible starting up vifm within neovim and do so with context of currently open file (I mean: the context exists, but is not used yet).

With directories having longer file list it would be great to have the file I started vifm from open.

vifm provides an option --select (which can be even used twice).

Warning: vifm will fail to start if the file specified by --select does not exist.

Given such functionality is implemented, review of all files in a directory shall become much simpler:

• - to open vifm, see the current file open
• j to go one file further, enter to open it
• and repeat until all files are checked

(the - assumes the vim-vinegar is installed)
