Cloud storage ​support

[stevefan1999-personal]

Description

We should release an API that allows us to implement workspace storage on basically anywhere (similar to the fashion of VFS)

Use case

For example, we can use our Google Drive, Onedrive, S3 compatible providers, rclone, Storj or even Synology Drive for ultimate privacy.

Anything else?

I was not referring that we need major cloud storage providers support, but rather I want to have the API, the basic interface so that the community can implement as a plugin (in future)

Right now we are just relying on local file system support to have those major cloud storage providers utilized indirectly, and there is a lot of problem like cache coherency/eventual consistency problem (for example I used rclone + FUSE mode before and it is quite painful). We need a more direct API so that we can solve it at a more fundamental level.

Are you willing to submit a PR?

You will need to implement a Ydoc provider. For example, our sqlite provider https://github.com/toeverything/AFFiNE/blob/master/packages/workspace/src/providers/sqlite-providers.ts

And there is a universal protocol. https://github.com/toeverything/blocksuite/blob/master/packages/store/src/providers/async-call-rpc.ts
