The current directory was changed after pick a file

[MahmoudKEA]

I noticed after i picked a file, the current directory has changed!

print(Directory.current.path); // "D:\Workspace\"

// I picked a file from desktop
FilePicker.platform.pickFiles(lockParentWindow: true).then((result) {
    print(Directory.current.path);  // "C:\Users\darkn\Desktop\"
});

My simple solution to restore my workspace again as below

final Directory currentDir = Directory.current;

FilePicker.platform.pickFiles(lockParentWindow: true).then((result) {
    Directory.current = currentDir;
});

I would appreciate if you could search for similar issues before creating a new one. Thank you.

Related to #804 and already implemented in PR #1022 but was closed. I will look into it.

I'm still working on it and will most probably create a pull request tonight.
