Due to the sandboxing on modern apple operating systems, it is necessary to obtain specific permission to access arbitrary files on the system after a user initiates file/folder selection. This permission can be stored for later use using a security-scoped bookmark. Since iPlug2 is in C++ and we don't really want to require people to write objective C, this PR deals with the bookmark as a WDL_TypedBuf<uint8_t>.
