I tried to copy files from my Android phone using the gvfs fuse mount
created for it.  However, while I could copy directories, I always got
"Operation not supported" when trying to copy files.  If file read and
copy operations are going to fail, then the mount is nearly useless and
shouldn't be exposed via FUSE.

Example output:

  cp: no se puede abrir «/run/user/1000/gvfs/mtp:host=%5Busb%3A004%2C008%5D/Phone/Android/data/com.google.android.apps.maps/cache/cache_vts_GMM.m» para lectura: Operation not supported
