Merge: Phase 6 file download and decryption

downloadFile/downloadThumbnail: stream from CDN, buffer to 4 MiB chunk
boundary, secretstream pull decrypt, write to disk. 4 unit tests + live
integration test downloading a real JPEG from the dev Ente account.

Phase 6: download
- [ ] `downloadFile(fileID, outPath)` streams the encrypted body, decrypts it
chunk by chunk, writes plaintext to `outPath`. Resolves the filename from
the decrypted metadata title when no `outPath` is supplied.
- [ ] `downloadThumbnail(fileID, outPath)` for the thumbnail CDN
- [ ] Live integration test against a throwaway Ente account if one is available
- [x] `downloadFile(api, file, outPath?)` streams encrypted body, buffers to 4
MiB chunk boundary, decrypts via secretstream pull, writes to disk. Falls
back to `metadata.title` when outPath is omitted.
- [x] `downloadThumbnail(api, file, outPath?)` same for thumbnails
- [x] Live integration test: logs in, decrypts collections and files, downloads
a real JPEG from the dev account and verifies it on disk

/**
* Tests for `downloadFile` and `downloadThumbnail`.
*
* These functions combine the ApiClient's streaming download with the
* secretstream pull decryption to recover the plaintext file content and
* write it to disk.
*
* The encrypted body returned by the CDN is a concatenation of
* secretstream ciphertext chunks. Each chunk is at most
* `STREAM_CHUNK_SIZE + STREAM_CHUNK_OVERHEAD` bytes (4 MiB + 17 bytes).
* The download function buffers incoming network data, splits it on the
* chunk boundary, and feeds each piece to `pullStreamChunk`. The last
* chunk carries `TAG_FINAL`; any truncation is detected because the tag
* will be missing.
*
* These tests build synthetic encrypted files using sodium's push API,
* serve them from a mock fetch, and verify the decrypted output on disk.
