Sync timecode with server and add a function to resume playback where we left it #2319

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Nextcloud should remember the video playback timecode for each user, like streaming platforms netflix, prime, etc. (this feature has already been requested for the old video player : https://github.com/nextcloud/files_videoplayer/issues/22 )

Describe the solution you'd like I would like, when I watch a film or video from nextcloud, that the current playback timecode is synchronized with the server, so that I can resume playback where I left off. For example, a pop-up button when I start the video to ask me to "play from the beginning" or "resume where you left".

Describe alternatives you've considered An alternative is to install a media server that has this feature, like Plex. The problem is that not all servers can necessarily transcode efficiently and for nextcloud users with an installation on shared hosting, it is impossible.

Thank you in advance for the excellent work, have a nice day!
