Tabs for links and files

Expected behavior

Link tab and file tab in gallery.

Explanation

I think these two tabs would complete the gallery.

a “Links” tab would be e great addition, indeed.

a “Files” tab is already existent on all systems, partly under the name “Documents”, but still.

Perhaps it would be useful to differentiate between documents (PDFs, etc.) and other file types.

+1 for the Links tab, and Files tab is the same as Documents tab, in any case maybe consider renaming “Documents” to “Files”

i created a pr for the latter: rename "Docs" tab to "Files" by r10s · Pull Request #2341 · deltachat/deltachat-android · GitHub

funnily, the code is also prepared for a “Links” tab, however, core lacks this feature.

Thanks.
In the desktop version the file tab is also called “Documents”.
Could you please create another pull request for it?
