Summary
This PR adds Nautilus compatibility detection and surfaces a clear warning in the widget when the current file explorer is not supported.
The goal is to avoid trying to install/use Nautilus-specific integration on distributions that use other file managers (for example, Nemo on Linux Mint), while informing users that some features may be limited.
What Changed
xdg-mime query default inode/directorycommand -v nautilusWhy
Without this check, systems where Nautilus is installed but not used as the default file explorer could still trigger Nautilus extension installation attempts. This change prevents unnecessary integration attempts and gives users immediate feedback when file-explorer-dependent features may not work as expected.
