Accessing and receiving files via FTP #445

From comment in #270

Idea is to create a FTP server that connects to docspells http endpoints exposing the files. Items can be represented as directories; must be read-only
The other way would be possible to: have a dedicated directory that allows to "ftp put" files into, which would be imported into docspell

There is Apache Mina for the hard parts already providing a FTP/SSH java library. This would be a separate project and not integrated into docspell itself.

Maybe also think of samba, would make it easier in windows to integrate, I guess

Cool idea :+1: .If Docspell would expose an SFTP server then SSHFS would be my favorite to use it. With that #717 would most likely by obsolete and not needed.
