Make Imaginary work with server-side encryption

[Pix13]

⚠️ This issue respects the following points: ⚠️

• This is a bug, not a question or a configuration/webserver/proxy issue.
• This issue is not already reported on Github (I've searched it).
• Nextcloud Server is up to date. See Maintenance and Release Schedule for supported versions.
• Nextcloud Server is running on 64bit capable CPU, PHP and OS.
• I agree to follow Nextcloud's Code of Conduct.

Bug description

When using server-side encryption, if you enable the usage of Imaginary micro service, all picture are sent encrypted to imaginary, making the micro service totally useless ( and silently, you can only check that by seeing errors 400 in imaginary log, instead of normal 200 answers)

Steps to reproduce

1. Setup nextcloud with server side encryption
2. Enable Imaginary micro service
3. See that imaginary cannot generate preview

Expected behavior

Previews are correctly generated ( by not using Imaginary with server side encryption, or by having the server unencrypt files before sending them to imaginary)

Hi, would you prefer to decrypt the files (to sent them unencrypted to the imaginary service) or fallback to local preview generation?

[Pix13]

Ideally i'd like to send them unencrypted to the imaginary service, as i need it ( i unencrypted my whole server for now ). I think it would also "solve" https://github.com/nextcloud/previewgenerator 's known issue if the \OC\Preview module does the unencryption before sending the data to the plugin behind

[szaimen]

I think this is a feature request to make imaginary work with sse

[thomasw-AT]

Any plans to fix this? Would be really nice to be able to use Imaginary AND keeping the stored data secure.
