Description

I've created circle for sharing particular folder and added users. The user accidentally unshared this folder so it was removed from his nextcloud. I would expect when I remove him from circle and add again, he will get the folder back but this doesn't work. I didn't find a way to share the folder back with the user other then adding him directly to the folder.

Reproduce the circle-sharing flow described in the issue: share a folder, have a user unshare it, remove the user from the circle, and add them again. Trace how circle membership changes are handled and verify that re-adding the user restores the folder without requiring a direct share.
