Description

See this thread:
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/qgis-developer/2017-July/049234.html

According to Even the logic here:
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/providers/gdal/qgsgdaldataitems.cpp#L246
isn't working anymore for GDAL2:

Quote: " Actually L246 shows a particular case for VRT. But I think this logic is now invalid since GDAL 2.0, since
GDALIdentifyDriver() will now retun "VRT" for a raster VRT, and "OGR_VRT" for a vector VRT (in GDAL 1.X era GDALIdentifyDriver() only worked on raster drivers)"

So probably this code should be updated.
