Clear error messages for ops that can't be done due to FS limitations.

Project Member Reported by amistry@chromium.org, Jul 17

Issue description

Chrome Version: M69
OS: Chrome

There are operations (i.e. file copying) that can't be done due to file system limitations. This includes copying >4GiB files to a FAT32 partition, or copying a file containing a ':' in the name to a windows formatted disk. Instead of attempting the operation and failing or giving a non-descript error message, we should validate the operation and fail early with a clear error message to the user.

This is a meta bug to track the various issues.

+mcirimele@ - FYI, we should be aware of these error cases as we think about the operations UX.
