Nick Craig-Wood 20eaad4b6d linkbox: fix downloading files by using web API - fixes #8665
The Linkbox open API (/api/open/file_search) no longer returns download
URLs, breaking all downloads. This switches to using the web API
(/api/file/my_file_list/web) which requires email+password authentication
but returns working download URLs.

This will unfortunately require changing your existing rclone config.

- Add email, password, and web_token config options
- Add web API login via /api/user/login_email with token caching and retry
- Create separate CDN HTTP client with HTTP/2 disabled and browser
  User-Agent to avoid CDN fingerprint blocking
- Remove searchOK regex and name-filtering (web API doesn't support it)
