Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
During a selection, when I click on an item it opens the file or download it, and mess with the current selection.
Describe the solution you'd like
During a selection, clicking on an item selects it if it isn't yet, or unselect it if it is already selected. The same way, Shift+click should select the range.
Additional context
This behavior is used everywhere, even on the Nextcloud Android application.
The behavior with the list view may be different
Edit: addition about shift+click
