Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Following the issue #1159, if the upload limit in PHP is restricted, you will get an error message for larger files on upload.
However, Nextcloud itself supports the upload of larger files flawlessly.

Describe the solution you'd like
Deck should use the same method of uploading files as nextcloud does, thus eliminating the file size limits of PHP.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Files can already be uploaded to the Deck folder and shared via the share from nextcloud button.

Research direction

Start with issue #1159 and Nextcloud’s existing large-file upload method, then trace Deck’s current file-upload entry point. Confirm that files larger than the PHP upload limit can be uploaded through Deck, with the existing upload behavior preserved.
