Add option to automated tagging to tag existing files

[schaarsc]

Steps to reproduce

1. login as admin
2. goto settings/workflow and create a new rule, e.g. based on MIME type

Expected behaviour

in step 3. I'd like to apply the rule to existing files. This makes only sense for rules based on information available on the server (size, MIME type, system tag, owner, ...)

Actual behaviour

automatic tagging works only for new files.

I don't understand why this issue has been closed

https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/files_automatedtagging
An app for Nextcloud that automatically assigns tags to newly uploaded files based on some conditions.

this issue is about files that already exist in Nextcloud, before a rule is created. As far as I know this currently not supported.
