GtkPlacesSidebar could display some info about current directory

Description
Nautilus removed its status bar, so there is currently no quick way to know how much free disk space there is in the current directory. Since vertical space is important, I can understand they wanted to remove that bar. I think the best place to add such information now would be the sidebar, since we have there unused pixels.
It would be nice to add that in the shared GtkPlacesSidebar to display used/free disk space of current directory. That way the UI will be shared with GtkFileChooser as well.
