Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Have the app be able to switch to a LAN address when connected to the same local network as the server.

Example:
Server connected to "Home" network that was a wi-fi SSID of "Home" with LAN IP of 10.0.0.1:13378
Server has internet address of "server.audiobookshelf.com

Ability to have the app detect when the device is connected to "Home" wifi and swtich from using "server.audiobookshelf.com" to "10.0.0.1:13378" for server address (and back when not connected).

Why would this be helpful?

Allows a faster, uninterrupted direct connection to the server locally. Useful for stability and especially loading files locally onto device when connected to home network.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

Would go in the server settings

Audiobookshelf App Version

Android App - 0.10.0

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

No image, I have some apps that can do this and thought it might be useful.
