Add TB 68 support

[johndoe7000]

Hello,

please add Thunderbird 68.0 support.
There are also some nice pull requests in the pipe... "Add random password generation support for each upload" would be really nice.

@oparoz @guillaumev It would be great to revive this extension. Do you know which parts have to be fixed to make it work with Thunderbird 68?

Yes please try a update. There are near none FileLink alternatives for 68.0
Perhaps this can help:

At least a manifest.json is needed. Also other 68.0 FileLink addons can help to be analysed.

The WebDav filelink provider module works well with TB68 and NextCloud if it can help.

@guillaume-smo How did you set up the Webdav filelink provider?

@gulliaume-smo:
Yes, the upload to nextcloud is working fine with WebDAV.
But: the link created couldn't be used at mail receivers.
First a password is needed and second it's not possible to download the document :-O
If I upload a document manually to nextcloud and generate a link and add the link to the mail, the system works fine :-)

I agree with this request!

[guillaumev]

I created a PR here: #82 This is in a very early stage and for now, nothing works, but help will be greatly appreciated :-)

Will it help if I post a bounty for this?

[e-alfred]

@ediazcomellas I think posting a bounty is always a good incentive.

@jospoortvliet Can you add this repository to the Bountysource bot?

[jospoortvliet]

@e-alfred done. Sorry, I rarely manage to catch up to notifications in github :(
