Bug Description
Desktop folder is still recognized by pantheon-files and get created by applications sometimes. We should ditch it completely and redirect all requests to it to home folder. That's the default fallback for any nonexistent folders, but desktop folder has special handling. Our OS patches remove it, but it seems that's not sufficient.

This is weird because "/usr/bin/ xdg-user- dir desktop" prints the home folder but pantheon-files treats "~/Desktop" as a desktop folder
