[Feature] A "file drop" or "upload only" option in share links, so users can upload but not view, download, or edit

I have searched the existing feature requests, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate request.

The feature

I often share links for people to upload media to one of my immich albums. However, sometimes I don't want them to see each others media when doing so.

Nextcloud has a feature for this called "file drop" when you're creating a Share link that makes it strictly an upload portal. No pictures or video are displayed and the user cannot view, download, or edit anything.

The only minor room for improvement to this in Nextcloud is that their UI doesn't make it clear when something has been successfully uploaded, especially in large batches, and the user themselves cannot see things are in the album once complete. If implemented in Immich, perhaps they would be allowed to see their own items while their browser session is still active, but then their uploads are hidden once they leave the page.

I believe this would be an excellent addition to Immich. It looks like there is already some interest in this type of thing, as there is a 3rd party tool called immich-drop which sounds like it does this but I'm not looking to run anything 3rd party.
