Get a file path from a Uri. This will get the the path for Storage Access
Framework Documents, as well as the _data field for the MediaStore and
other file-based ContentProviders.<br>

Callers should check whether the path is local before assuming it
represents a local file.

@param context The context.
@param uri     The Uri to query.
