Feature description

I do not allow Molly to independently access my files. Instead, I use the file picker. However, I can't use it to set a profile picture. I would like to be able to do that.

Additionally, I would like to be able to use the gallery app to upload files to chats and I would like to be able to attach multiple images to a single message.

In this context, i think it would be nice for Molly removing the legacy READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGEpermission in favor of SAF (https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/document-provider)
