Add support for MPTCP in the app

[Aperence]

User Problem

Why should we implement this? What is the user benefit?

MPTCP allows a better network reliability by permitting a seamless transition between different network interfaces in case of deterioration of the connection on one of them. Typically, if the connection becomes slow on the Wi-Fi interface, we can transition to the cellular interface without having to recreate the connection. Another use-case could be to use both interface in parallel to speed-up the download of files on this browser.

Ideas for Solution

Let us know if you have an idea on how to solve this user problem

Use the multipathServiceType option in the URLSessionConfiguration with, for example, the handover mode. Examples on how to enable MPTCP in swift on iOS can be found on this repository
