Bug Description
How to reproduce:
- Find a web page that has a file chooser, e.g. https:/
- Click the "Choose File" button
- Click "Home" if you didn't start here
- See that Chromium uses `/home/
Expected behavior:
The file picker should use the user's home folder, not the snap's, because everything else would be confusing for end users.

This also affects the libreoffice snap, and more generally all snaps using the desktop helpers (and it should be fixed there).
