Support non-local filesystems #528

Dim at the moment seems to not be able to scan NFS/gdriveFuse mounted folders. If it does scan them it cant detect changes automatically and scanning such directories take an eternity.

Will you also please consider 245 too? If not, can you at least put the s3 layer integration in mind when you design the interface/trait? Thanks for your time and your work.

Some object storage services have built-in indexing as well such as Azure Blob Storage with its blob index tags. If blobs (objects) are tagged appropriately, Dim could make use of this indexing capability instead of building its own index for this media location.
