Ionic-native: [file-transfer] Cordova is deprecating cordova-plugin-file-transfer

[janpio]

https://github.com/apache/cordova-docs/pull/746/files

How could/should/wants Ionic Native handle this?

Deprecate the wrapper as well?
Replace the implementation with what the Cordova blog post will contain?
Transition to a new @ionic/file-transfer (or similar) that has the same API as the current Ionic Native wrapper?

I have already been forced to migrate off Cordova file-transfer for some of my projects, but using HttpClient has significant worse performance.

I use httpClient for file download and save it on storage (android device), but speed is low for copy temp file to target place!

They stopped development/maintenance only.. the plugin is still functional. The plugin wrapper can stay as-is, we can add a deprecation notice.
