[FEATURE REQUEST] Password generator for public links

[TheOneRing]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Along with the password policy, the iOS client implements a password generator.

Describe the solution you'd like The generator creates passwords that follow the policy and in general should have a higher entropy than a user generated password. The implementation should be aligned with the iOS implementation.

Additional context iOS code: https://github.com/owncloud/ios-sdk/blob/develop/ownCloudSDK/Password%20Policy/OCPasswordPolicy%2BGenerator.m#L24

Possible password policies to fulfill are the following (values are server-customizable):

 "password_policy": {
                    "max_characters": 72,
                    "min_characters": 8,
                    "min_digits": 1,
                    "min_lowercase_characters": 1,
                    "min_special_characters": 1,
                    "min_uppercase_characters": 1
}

None of the available solutions was suitable (in addition to the fact that none of them is native). Developing our own solution then 👨🏼‍💻
