    Warn that the fast native indexer doesn't follow symlinks · 4d3a765e

    When using the Baloo-powered fast native indexer, symbolic links are
    not followed, due to a longstanding design decision in Baloo itself.
    This means that if, for example, you have ~/Music confiured as the only
    music location, and within that folder is a symbolic link pointing to
    ~/otherMusicLocation, none of the music there will be visible. The user
    will have to manually add ~/otherMusicLocation to the list of music
    locations as well.
    
    This is not at all obvious, and it's not going to change in Baloo
    anytime soon as it is a design decision. So let's tell the user about
    it in the config dialog so they're aware.
