Refactor lib/open to accept user provided arguments
* Get rid of open_darwin It just lead to code duplication for a simple one string change. Instead we query it during initialization * Accept user provided arguments "open" on MacOS accepts things like -A to use a specific application Pass trough arguments the user provided in order to facilitate this * Refactor the function to a struct This makes it more convenient for the caller and avoids signatures like lib.OpenFile(nil, u.String(), nil) which are fairly unreadable
