Problem:
`:edit <dir>` and `nvim <dir>` currently rely on netrw to show local directory
contents.
Solution:
- Provide `filetype=directory`.
- Introduce dir.lua, a small plugin that provides directory listing, opening
items, parent navigation, and refresh.
- `netrw` remains available for `:Explore`, remote paths, archives, and file
operations. To continue

Problem: To goto or delete a bookmark, one needs to prefix a count
for the bookmark number (e.g., "2gb" to open bookmark#2).
As the bookmark list gets or deletes entries, the numbers
keep changing, requiring listing the bookmarks with qb to
discover the desired bookmark number. Typing gb or mB
without a count targets g:netrw_bookmarklist[-1].
Solution: If no count is given to gb or mB, list all bookmarks and
prompt for a number using inputlist(), similar to tag jump
with g].

Problem: the bookmarks list can have duplicate entries, more often
in win32 (due to mixed slashes and capitalization) and when
g:netrw_keepdir=0 (which could introduce relative paths).
Duplicate entries could be: C:\foo\BAR\baz.file
c:\foo\bar\baz.file
c:/foo\BAR/baz.file
BAR/baz.file
Solution: Normalize the paths and make sure they are always absolute
(J. Paulo Seibt).

Dr. Chip retired some time ago and is no longer maintaining the netrw
plugin. However as a runtime plugin distributed by Vim, it important to
maintain the netrw plugin in the future and fix bugs as they are
reported.
So, split out the netrw plugin as an additional package, however include
some stubs to make sure the plugin is still loaded by default and the
documentation is accessible as well.
