## Description

### Steps to reproduce

1.  enforce a nextcloud storage to be configured with a URL without a trailing slash (database manipulation needed)

2.  Try to create a file link via API (using `POST /api/v3/files_links` or `POST /api/v3/work_packages/:id/file_links`) or by using the nextcloud integration app.

### What is the buggy behavior?

  - File link creation fails with "storage not existent"

### What is the expected behavior?

1.  File link creation works

### Important note

Eventually this won't happen anymore, as new or edited nextcloud storages always have a canonical url stored in the database with a trailing slash. But the application must be compatible to the legacy data.
