SAF: App Inventor implementation of Storage Access Framework

Extensions
#83

I tried it on a device of one of my children (who sadly uses WhatsApp :sob:) and it is true that it is not possible to access these (specific) WhatsApp folders (files in these folders). Obviously, this is only possible for the WhatsApp app.

Seems doubtful but worthy a try.

Thatā€™s not a method and is procedure.
Though if you will look at blocks then you will find related methods.
