Type of Enhancement

Web Interface/Frontend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

I would like for the .m3u files contained inside some of my media folders to be uploaded along with the media content itself.

Why would this be helpful?

Some of my library items have .m3u playlist files, useful for folks who are on iPhone and are unable to get the audiobookshelf app at this time. The playlist file allows them to play the chapters in order after downloading the item to their device for offline use without having to manually choose each chapter. Some chapters don't have their chapter numbers in their filenames and thus are disorganized when downloaded, so using the playlist file makes it a more friendly user experience when playing the files with VLC player, for example.

Audiobookshelf Server Version

v2.19.2

As you can see, .m3u files are currently ignored when uploading files/folders.
