Research direction

Reproduce the attachment download behavior described in the issue on Windows and Linux after upgrading from Rocket.Chat 6.3.0 to 6.3.1, comparing the attachment link with the cloud icon. Trace the client-side download flow from the attachment UI; done means the link downloads the attachment instead of opening a browser at the server address.
