Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. N/A

Describe the solution you'd like Most of the time I have a book that is available over a public http(s) url that I have to download to disk then immediately upload to calibre-web. Would be nice (and hopefully/probably not too much effort) to be able to pass a url that calibre itself downloads.

adding this issue to track interest/potential implementation but I may submit a PR for it myself when I get time.

Describe alternatives you've considered Currently works fine just extra step of downloading to disk.

Additional context N/A
