Serves the account-wide "assets" folder that holds every uploaded asset, providing upload, search and asset-delivery child lookup. Mounted in the root folder as "assets" and reached via CurrentRootFolderService, so most callers get hold of it with rf.child("assets"). A POST with a file uploads a new binary asset and creates it via AssetManager; a GET with a "q" parameter runs a search and returns the results as JSON. Looking up a child by an asset's unique id returns the asset's read/delivery resource rather than a real WebDAV child, since assets are not listed as children of this folder.

Properties
| Property | Returns | Description |

| assetTypes | List<AssetType> | All asset types registered for the current account, including both content types and simple tag-like types. |
| children | List<? extends Resource> | WebDAV children of this folder. Always empty, since assets are addressed directly by unique id via child() rather than being listed here. |
| contentManagedPermissions | boolean | Whether access to this folder is governed by content-managed permissions rather than an explicit access control list. Always true. |
| contentTypes | List<ContentType> | The subset of the account's registered asset types that are content types, ie types for structured content items rather than plain files. |
| name | String | Name this folder is addressed by in its parent collection. Always "assets". |
| parent | CommonCollectionResource | The collection this folder is mounted under, ie the root folder. |
| title | String | Page title for this folder. Always "Assets". |
