Add support for public shares of pages

[42ske]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
If you use collectives as cooperative knowledge base of your group/organization it’s a matter of time when the first member wants to share contents with non-members. This is easily possible at the level of collectives. For pages you can manage this a bit complicated via the files-app.

Describe the solution you'd like
I want to be able to:

1. create a public link for pages according to the function of public links for entire collectives.
2. There should be an option if this link should also include all supages of a page or not.
3. The already existing sharing setting in the collectives’ settings should have an effect on the page links of course.

Describe alternatives you've considered
A detour is to share page via the files app, which is not very intuitive.

Is there really a need for being able to share a page without its subpages?
I think it would be fine to only have a way to share both together. One could still fallback to sharing the single page file via files.

3. The already existing sharing setting in the collectives’ settings should have an effect on the page links of course.

The only option i can think of right now is read-only vs. editable shares. I think they should be independent so i can share the entire collective as read only and a page with its subpages as editable - or the other way around. These links may go to different audiences anyway.

Being able to share a page with its subpages would be a very useful feature of course. There would be lot of scenarios where this would be enough. But I can imagine, there are also other scenarios in which a seperate possibility would be great.

And yes you are right that you can use the files app for that, but I know for lot of users this ist not very intuitive (I handle it this way).

Yes, you are absolutely correct with this.

Ideas for implementation:

• provide a share tab in the page sidebar for sharing that particular page and its subpages.
• don't allow sharing a page without subpages.
• extend the collectives_shares database with a page_id field.
• hide the share tab for the landing page => share the collective instead.
• limit fetch pages to page and subpages
• In the public share user interface:
  • prevent moving pages in ui and api
  • prevent deleting pages in ui and api
  • don't fetch trash pages, hide the trash, block the trash api
