Yakov Till d0c469c3c0 iclouddrive: add read only iCloud Photos support and SRP authentication
Add read-only iCloud Photos support to the existing iclouddrive
backend via `service = photos` config option.

Also includes auth improvements on top of #9209's SRP authentication.

**Photos features:**
- 3-level hierarchy: libraries (Personal + Shared Photo Library) →
  albums → photos/videos
- server-side smart albums (All Photos, Videos, Favorites,
  Screenshots, Live, Bursts, Panoramas, Slo-mo, Time-lapse, Portrait,
  Long Exposure, Animated, Hidden, Recently Deleted)
- User-created albums and nested album folders
- Live Photo `.MOV` companions as first-class entries
- Edited photo versions (`-edited` suffix) and RAW alternatives
- Duplicate filename dedup for camera counter wrap collisions
- Parallel cold listing for large albums
- Delta sync via CloudKit `changes/zone` - warm listings near-instant from disk cache
- Disk cache (libraries, albums, photos) with atomic writes for crash safety
- `ChangeNotify` support for FUSE mounts via `changes/zone` polling
- `ListR` support for `--fast-list` and recursive operations
- `--metadata` support - width, height, added-time, favorite, hidden
- Fresh download URLs per file - no stale URL failures on long copies
- FUSE mount documentation with recommended flags

**Auth improvements over #9209:**
- SMS 2FA fallback for users without trusted Apple devices
- Explicit push notification request - fixes iOS/macOS 26.4+ where 409
  no longer auto-pushes
- Thread safety for concurrent FUSE callers (mutexes on session and client state)
- Session endpoint caching - skips ~5s `/validate` round-trip on warm start
- `Disconnect` support - clears auth state + disk cache
- PCS cookie support for Advanced Data Protection accounts, including
  trusted-device approval for PCS cookies

Built on @coughlanio's Photos PoC (Closes #8734) and @mikegillan's SRP auth (#9209).

Fixes #7982

Docs

This directory tree is used to build all the different docs for rclone.

See the content directory for the docs in markdown format.

Note that some of the docs are auto-generated - these should have a DO NOT EDIT marker near the top.

Use hugo to build the website.

Changing the layout

If you want to change the layout then the main files to edit are

  • layout/index.html for the front page
  • chrome/*.html for the HTML fragments
  • _default/single.md for the default template
  • page/single.md for the page template

Running make serve in a terminal give a live preview of the website so it is easy to tweak stuff.
