Download from lightbox fails to authenticate #2618

Description

Steps to reproduce:

  • Log into an org on zulipchat.com, or any other server running a recent release and on Xenial. (Not chat.zulip.org, which is on Trusty.)
  • Find a conversation with a user-uploaded image in it. (Or just upload one.)
  • Tap the image, bringing up the lightbox.
  • Tap the ellipsis in the lower right to bring up a menu; select "Download file".
  • The download fails. It should succeed.

I tested this just now with 13.4.88 on Android. I'm pretty sure the cause is that we just haven't fixed the download to provide authentication to the server. For more details, see commit cb31986, where we fixed the display of images within the message list webview.
