Feature request: Better retry/resume controls for downloads after failure

[prestomation]

Describe the problem

Today, downloading a job output downloads all files from the output manifest. There is a 'SKIP' option for existing files, but this can behave in unexpected ways because if a one file is partially downloaded, it will be skipped and appear corrupted after the download complete.

Proposed Solution

One solution might be some sort of 'RESUME' mode for downloads. This seems like it should be the default

Example Use Cases

The user story to focus on is if during a download there is a system/network failure. After recovery, the user wants to resume the download where it stopped, and not redownload bytes that were previously downloaded successfully.

Thanks for creating this request! Definitely a good improvement to have, especially when downloads get interrupted for large files. We will take a look and add this to our list of issues to prioritize.
