The attached patch removes most of the obsolete file system-related enums
in libs-gui and keeps only two "styles":

      Nice :-) We should be using URLs everywhere but in the lowest levels,
or platform specific pieces (I hope).

As long as the implementation is sane; I also removed FSYS_STYLE_URL stuff.

If there is no objection, I'll push this patch in a few days

      The cleanup is great of course. It is well worth checking, before each
piece of fixing inside tools/ itself, whether we can save more time by
re-writing the (sometimes rather few) call-sites, to use sal/ classes
instead (?) :-)

It would be best; many methods were already unused and DirEntry screams to
be removed from the tree.
Howewer, since I lack knowledge of the different APIs, I'm only doing this
sort of incremental cleaning for now.

      Usually the sal API is far lamer in its semantic richness, so
potentially expanding and improving sal at the same time can be a useful
thing to do.

It's best to keep it lame IMHO. The code I cleaned was trying to do too
many things which were utterly irrelevant...

Thanks for your encouragement !
