  File dialog doesn't return current filter in Ubuntu 20.04

Bug description:
  * Impact
  The file dialog implementation doesn't return the current filter. It is in 
the spec and it is fixed in newer versions of the portals. But the 1.6.0 
version doesn't return it.

  This is an issue for Inkscape which uses the filter to select which
  file format someone wishes to save as if they override the defaults.
  This works well on Ubuntu 22.04.

  * Test case

  $ snap install --candidate inkscape.

  In Inkscape if you just draw on the canvas and hit save a save dialog
  will appear. There is a selector at the bottom right that adjust which
  files you see, but also which format you want to save in. So if you
  make your file "test.pdf" and select "Portable Document Format
  (*.pdf)" in the selector you should get a PDF file. Before these
  patches you will get a file "test.pdf" which is actually an SVG file.
  After the patches you'll get a "test.pdf" that is actually a PDF.

  * Regression potential

  That's a change to the fileselector portal so check that opening and
  saving files in a few snaps and flatpaks still works as intended
