[Feature] triggering share sheet on mobile devices when downloading images

I have searched the existing feature requests to make sure this is not a duplicate request.

• Yes

The feature

so I use immich a lot to share photos between friends and family and the same problem occur every time, they would go to click the download button, immich would do its thing, then on ios it would open the photo (I don't think downloading a file should do this), I don't know what it does on andriod since I don't have an andriod device

it would be nice to have immich trigger the share sheet when it finish downloading so the user can pick where to send the photo or to save it in their photos app

so I'm having a go at implementing this myself and its a pain.
I'm encountering a problem where the browser would not let the navigator.share() executes, because it thinks that the function call does not comes from user interaction because the file has to be downloaded and it would time out before the download finishes

here's some ideas I came up with for this

• pre loading picture, which will cause issue because how do I do it without downloading a huge file the user probably won't download
• user click the button to download and when finishes prompt the user to save it, which will also require more than one click

both sucks.
I'm leaving this here for now, until I can find a way to implement a way to fix this without adding more buttons
