Add a utility to download files
What does this MR do?
This is a follow up from !26838 (merged).
In that branch we have used a custom implementation trigger downloads programmatically. Since this behaviour is used several times in the codebase, it makes sense to provide a utility function.
This MR adds that utility function and removes the identified custom implementations.
