Bug description

Clicking “Add remote share” on the receiver triggers
DELETE /apps/files_sharing/api/externalShares/<id>
instead of the expected POST, so the incoming share is removed and never appears.

This is true for both the:
sharing via typing in the share to external user
sharing via link and opening the link, then triggering the add to your own Nextcloud host

I've discovered this by trying to integrate Nextcloud version 31 into OCM Test Suite.

Steps to reproduce

Important

We use a custom docker image that only has the base Nextcloud installed, the notifications app IS NOT installed.

See the docker file at dev-stock

Steps

1. On nc1.docker log in as bob, share test.txt with alice@nc2.docker via federated share
2. On nc2.docker log in as alice; a Remote share dialog pops up
3. Press Add remote share

See the videos (from Cypress automating the process, that's why it's a bit fast)
