[Bug 2091213] [NEW] Dophin does not prompt for user/pass for SMB shares, errors out when writing file.

[sem]

Public bug reported:

In Ubuntu Studio 24.04, try to access SMB share with guests allowed, but
write access limited to logged in users with access rights.

In microsoft windows, accessing the share via the File Explorer lets you
browse as guest. To login in, you have to "Map Network Drive" which is a
right click option, and this lets you input the username/pass and choose
how long to remember the password.

In Ubuntu Studio, accessing the share via dolphin lets me browse as a
guest, but in order to login as a user, I have to open up the "Windows
Shares" app and put in my user/pass credentials under the default user
name / default password.

If I try writing a file without this, I get "Error - Access denied to
smb://omvroom.local/OMVshare/test.txt"

## What should happen instead ##

* There should be a way to login specifically to this share, without making these credentials default for all windows shares
* Possibility: a right click option to authenticate as a user
* Possibility: before getting an access denied error, you should be prompted for a username/pass login.
