Make partial submission progress survive retries #7356

Description

@lognaturel

Submissions where some amount of the upload succeeds, and the rest doesn't, retrying should not require every chunk to be uploaded again.

Notes

From @FormShareDev at #7353:

We used ODK Collect a couple of years ago in rural Tanzania as part of the ARTEMIS project, where we collected farm data along with close to 100 high-res images. Sending such a submission is already hard there, and today's upload behavior makes it harder: there is no chunk-level progress, so whenever an upload fails, which happens often on an unreliable link, the entire submission is re-uploaded from the beginning on the next attempt.

Possible solution at #7353 using a dot file to store chunk submission status.
