Bug Description

Currently download manager has a global queue for all downloads, meaning that if one app is downloading a file other apps will be forced to wait until it is finished. This behaviour is non-obvious to the user, making it appear as if apps are stuck downloading files for unknown reasons. Instead UDM should implement individual queues on a per app basis, so that one app doesn't interfere with the downloading of files in another.
