Add a "Show in Finder" button to system snippets row. #7

Users who need to correct permissions with the system snippets encounter an unhelpful error message — users may not know where the system snippets are kept:

In this pull request, I added a button to reveal the location of the system snippets so the user can change permission in the Finder.

I also have an alternate, or complementary approach on a separate branch (not included in this PR) that shows the full path in the error message. The change is helpful, but maybe inelegant. I'd be happy to include those changes in this PR, or make a separate PR.

Thanks for sharing this! I'll also have a look at informative-permission-error.

Let me know and I can make a pull request from that branch. But I think this button makes the messaging unnecessary.
