Direct Download for S3 and SWIFT

[DeepDiver1975]

In the first implementation the direct download link (for s3 and swift backends) will contain an link to the owncloud instance itself which will generate a temporary/one time access token.

Sample direct download url

https://cloud.example.com/remote.php/direct/{fileId}

The final target url will be generated and returned as redirect to the client - the client will follow the redirect accordingly.

Furthermore in case the redirected url is unreachable or the owncloud server returns with an error (e.g. token could not be generated) the client shall fallback to the regular webdav based download.

This approach will work as long as tokens can be generated.
There is no need to add any additional libraries in the client.
We have to think about a solution for systems where no token can be generated (for whatever reason).

let's generate explicit tickets now for

• S3 - generating token on GET
• SWIFT - generating token on GET
• mirall - allow redirect on direct download link @guruz - allow redirect on direct download link client#2614
