Research direction
Start by reviewing the SDK's existing upload and download entry points and how each operation establishes a connection. Define the batch API, its request and response behavior, and completion criteria before identifying the relevant tests; the issue names no files or tests.

Description
It would be awesome if there were a way to upload and download files in batches - having a method that wouldn't involve connection setup + teardown per file upload/download.
This would be super helpful for projects like git-remote-dropbox that transfer lots of small objects. (currently, the bottleneck is with having lots of connections and round trips to the Dropbox servers)
