Create a new file. The user who creates the file will automatically be assigned to read and write access unless they have passed custom values for read and write arguments.

Larger files should be uploaded using multiple requests with the content-range header to send a partial request with a maximum supported chunk of 2MB. The content-range header values should always be in bytes.

When the first request is sent, the server will return the File object, and the subsequent part request must include the file's id in x-appwrite-upload-id header to allow the server to know the partial upload is for the existing file and not for a new one.

If you're creating a new file using one of the Appwrite SDKs, the entire chunking logic will be managed by the SDK internally.
