meta: Add thunar
I used thunar for a while and it was a great experience with few
exceptions, however I will likely remove it in favor of a more command
line-based experience. Using thunar was a valuable learning exercise and
it helped me understand more about what file browsers actually do, and I
realized that I can replicate this experience fairly trivially while
giving me the benefits of my existing configuration.

# thunar
[thunar][thunar] is a GTK file manager.
## Use Cases
thunar can be used to:
- Have a graphical interface for browsing files on a computer
- Not worry about the cascading effect of nautilus
- Have thumbnails update instantly, no refresh needed most of the time
You should not use thunar if:
- You want to search in your file browser (nautilus is better for this)
