eshell: open file at point
Add a function to open the file at point. In an eshell session, I can
then move the cursor to a file or a directory, and call
`fcuny/eshell-open-file-at-point`: for a file, a new buffer is open, if
it's a directory, we're changing the working directory to the given
path.

Bind the function to "C-o" in eshell.
