Full Release Notes

## What's Changed

Thanks for the attention and patience with the v0.8.0 release which took a while and I know there would be issues with the refactor. Its one of the reasons I knew a "stable" release wouldn't be possible yet. Now, shares are much more powerful, customizable, and easily enhanced in future changes. Plenty of new share features to come in 0.8.x updates (like onlyoffice support for shares). Keep me updated with any bugs or feature requests by opening issues. A stable release with proper documentation shouldn't be much further off.

 **New Features**:
 - api for generate download link (see swagger) https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/issues/1007
 - added `source.config.disabled` option to disable a source without removing it from config file.
 - added `source.config.private` option to designate as private -- currently just means no sharing permitted.
 - hide share card in share
 - download count for a share shows up on share management

 - updated description for indexingIntervalMinutes https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser/issues/1067
