[Bug]: "Limit downloads" setting on public link does not limit downloads #486
Description
⚠️ This issue respects the following points: ⚠️
- This is a bug, not a question or a configuration/webserver/proxy issue.
- This issue is not already reported on Github OR Nextcloud Community Forum (I've searched it).

Bug description
I am trying to limit the number of downloads to 1.
I tested the limit by downloading the file with an incognito browser, a tor browser and second network location (different public IP). I do get push notifications in the mobile app for each download, but the downloads do not seem to count into the limit. I can download the shared file as many times as I want.
Steps to reproduce
- Create a public share link
- Go to customize Link
- Check the "Set download limit" checkbox and enter 1 into the input field.
- Click on "Update share".
- Copy the link into an incognito browser and download the file.
- Repeat step 5 with different browsers or devices.
Expected behavior
After the first download the link should be invalidated or show that the maximum number of downloads has been reached.
