Describe the Feature/Enhancement

There is one notification event for auto-download.

Notification Event: onPodcastEpisodeDownloaded Triggered when a podcast episode is auto-downloaded

This can only be triggered by audiobookshelf's cron update. But a) use the api path /api/podcasts/{id}/checknew to update a podcast or b) download episode using the webui don't seem to trigger this event.

Why would this be helpful?

It would be helpful if any successful download event can trigger notification. I'm using a script to check new episodes, so the situation is like (a). Also in case of (b) if an old podcast/episode is added, it's good to notify user there's new content available.
