Description

Currently Android share intent does not have Keybase as a destination, for one to share files to.

Example: When I tried to upload photos from the Google Photos Android app, using the Android share intent, there was no Keybase icon for me to upload these files to.

- There is no Keybase as a share destination when sharing a single file.
- There is no Keybase as a share destination when sharing multiple files either.

Slightly similar: #13451 - enhancement request to upload multiple media files in one go.

Research direction

Start by locating the Android share-intent handling in the client and trace how it receives single and multiple files. Verify how other share destinations are registered, then confirm that Keybase appears when sharing one file and multiple files from an Android app such as Google Photos.
