    I am glad to make this commit that fixes up a lot of the FTP
    implementation. I fixed the behavior of many of the FTP commands,
    including LIST, SIZE, and CWD.
    
    I moved the original VFSFile/DirectoryView into abstract classes and wrote
    a special implementation for each content type, which makes the code much
    more flexible.
    
    Also I finally implemented a smart way of adding files via VFS through
    file extension introspection, based on Jim's ExtensionViewName proposal.
    
    I am adding documentation in the DevelCookbook right now and will later
    add a README file.
    
    TODOs:
    
    - make VFS View names flexible, so that file extensions specify views.
    
    - Simplify ZCML directives, so that one can add new extensions for Add views
      quicker. A solution might look like that:
    
          <vfs:view
              name=".dtml"
              for="Zope.App.OFS.Container.IAdding."
              factory=".DTMLPageAdd."
              permission="Zope.ManageContent">
            <vfs:extension name=".html" />
            <vfs:extension name=".xul" />
            <vfs:extension name=".xml" />
            ...
          </vfs:view>
    
      This method would also be good for defining a default fiel extension.
    
    - Show an object with its default file extension.
