Issue Opening Folder Using vscode.openFolder

[allileong]

• VSCode Version: 1.26.0-Insider (This issue is happening in Insiders only)
• OS Version: macOS 10.13.6

While running a custom extension, I execute:

vscode.commands.executeCommand(
     'vscode.openFolder',
     vscode.Uri.parse(
        <some-local-path>
     )
);

I get a 'Path does not exist error', even though the path exists.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Run a custom extension
2. Execute the code snippet above

@allileong It works if you prefix the local path with file:/ for me. For example: file://Users/me/hello. Can you try that?

@jrieken In the stable bits of 1.25.1, this would work even without the prefix of the scheme. I am not sure if the api for Uri changed or the one for vscode.openFolder command. Regardless, this would be a breaking changes for extension authors.

@aeschli maybe due to the changes for supporting URIs on the main side?
