Live Activities and Dynamic Island support for uploads

[JanOstrowka]

With the release of iOS 16, Apple introduced two powerful new UI features - Live Activities and the Dynamic Island. I think these would be incredibly useful to integrate with the media upload experience in Ente Photos.

When users are uploading photos and videos to the cloud, it would be great to display a Live Activity showing upload progress. This would persist on the lock screen allowing users to monitor status without needing to open the app (background upload).

Additionally, upload status and controls could be surfaced through the Dynamic Island for devices like iPhone 14 Pro. This space is perfect for showing realtime progress, pausing/resuming, etc.

Integrating these iOS 16 features would make the upload process and visibility into status much more seamless. Users would feel more confident their media is backing up properly without needing to actively monitor the app.

I suggest considering to add Live Activities and Dynamic Island support for uploads in a future app update. Please let me know if any early design/testing with these features would be helpful!

Thanks for your consideration!
