Move files when ratio or seeding time is reached #16214

Suggestion

Basically I'd like the option "move files to..." in the seeding limits dropdown. Seeding limits

So I can set up my torrents in such a way that once the download is completed they keep seeding up to a certain limit, and only when that limit is reached they are moved.

A different way of implementation would be to add it somewhere in the Saving management, but that would probably be more complex.

Use case

I have automatic saving management set up to move completed torrents to my Google Drive partition. This relocation works very well, but once the files are relocated seeding is almost never possible. Probably something to do with qBittorrent not being able to seed so well from a cloud partition. So my seeding ratio's are shit since I set this up. So I'd like to prohibit qBittorrent from moving the files until a certain seeding limit is reached.

Extra info/examples/attachments

I'm using qBittorrent v4.4.0 on Windows 11 and Google Drive for Desktop to have a cloud partition.

Yes. But if it is done outside Saving management the affected torrents will be turned to manual saving management mode once moved.

I created a Github account just to say how much I would appreciate this feature.
