With the addition of SmbUrl to canonicalize, and name resolution to replace hostname with IP the URL entered by the user may not be the what is displayed in the files app.
The plumbing for this is essentially the internal work needed to support a user entered display name.
This doesn't initially need to add support for adding a display name field to the mount dialog, only to ensure that what the user enters as the share path is what appears in the files app. eg. if they enter a path in the windows form \\server\share, that's what should appear, not the canonical path we use internally eg. smb://server/share
