Feature Request: Make file-size available as a criteria for promotion #47

I'm like 90% certain this isn't supported -- if it is, are there any examples?

The majority of the DSLR photos in my library have 3 files for them -- an original JPG, an original RAW/CR2, and an exported/post-processed JPG. The first two are direct from the camera (shooting JPG+RAW), and the last is exported from Lightroom/Darkroom. Technically, these exports can be deterministically identified by EXIF data in the image, but it doesn't appear to be anything Immich indexes. What is basically always true is that the exported JPG versions at 100% quality are substantially bigger than the original JPGs.

The end result is the promotion logic for that image should tie-break on file size, not asset id, with larger being promoted. Since the tie-break happens on asset-id, I'd need a way to have the bigger JPG "win" outright.

Is this a feasible addition/enhancement?
