Deprecation of gvfs-open #9

Description

@samueloph

Hello, forwarding this deprecation notice I received on Debian:

According to codesearch, smoke_zephyr.utilities.open_uri() runs
gvfs-open. This utility has been deprecated for a long time and will
likely be removed before the release of Debian 11. If a direct equivalent
is required, please use ["gio", "open", uri] (from the libglib2.0-bin
package).

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=969767

I understand it's not exactly an issue for smoke-zephyr as it will fallback to xdg-open if gvs-open is not present:

elif which('gvfs-open'):
proc_args.append(which('gvfs-open'))
elif which('xdg-open'):
proc_args.append(which('xdg-open'))

But I thought it was a good idea to forward this to you nonetheless, feel free to close this issue whenever you want :)
