Description
Hello,
I'd like to download files using the terminal.
It works for remote files on the side bar of course, but sometimes I want to download files which are currently outside of my workspace, so I'd just go for code --download file or something like that.
I tried to figure out what actually happens on the download action, but couldn't find something in the logs.
(This available via terminal on a remote host would be awesome)

Research direction
The request is for a terminal command such as code --download file, including files outside the workspace and files on a remote host. Start by tracing the existing sidebar download action; the issue names no files, tests, or source entry point, so the relevant command and remote-download paths must first be identified. Done means the requested files can be downloaded from the terminal in the supported local and remote scenarios.
