Tell us about your request
The "Files" container tab is useful to get a quick idea of the file there are in a container. It is currently possible to "Edit", "Delete", "Save" and "Import" a file / directory. But sometimes it is useful to use a path, for exemple to conveniently paste it into a docker compose exec <service> tail -n15 <path>.

This feature request asks for the addition of a "Copy path" entry in container Files view. It would be allowed on both directories and files.

Which service(s) is this request for?
This is for "Docker Desktop".

Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard?
I'm trying to get a full path, but I do not want to sh in the container and navigate there.

Are you currently working around the issue?
Currently I can copy part of it by clicking save and then copying the filled name.

Additional context
I believe the path should always be unix like (using / and not \)
