Description
We would have to implement quality and videoQuality from expo-image-picker https://docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/sdk/imagepicker/#imagepickeroptions
To be done
- Add a button on ShareView header to toggle between SD/HD. It can be just a text for now.
- We’ll have to play with the values, but a compression of 0.5 might be enough
- Default SD
- The option needs to be considered on all files sent on the same upload, but fallback to SD afterwards for future uploads

Research direction
Start at the ShareView header and the integration with expo-image-picker, focusing on its quality and videoQuality options. Add an SD/HD toggle with SD as the default, apply the selected quality to every file in one upload, and reset to SD for later uploads; verify the behavior with both images and videos.
