Research direction

Start by reading issue #382 and tracing the existing duplicate-processing job and server-side database handling. Define the extra phash fields, central duplicate processing, and synchronization of duplicate information to clients; done means the server processes duplicates without deduping and clients can decide what to do.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

feature-request system:duplicates system:server

As per #382, extend the DB with extra fields. In this case the phash. And copy the duplicate processing job to the server.
That would allow central calculation of duplicates. Not deduping, but processing only.

Then duplicate information could be synced to the clients and they can decide what to do with it.
Should speedup the duplicate processing. And would allow the server to do something, instad of doing nothing.
