Eventually it should be tested if there is a running instance and tell
it to open the file.
If there is no running instance:
Lazarus needs a project to save the meta data, compiler options,
paths, session, etc. When a non project file is opened the IDE should
ask what to do. Open the last project, create a new, locate the
corresponding project, quit.
