feat: Attachment of Files to Documents using S3. #603

Apart from the placeholder issue outlined in this review I think really the question is whether a plain text link is good enough – and I'm tempted to say no.
We really want to maintain a semantic link to the fact that it's a file upload within the document structure by creating a file node type that stores the attachmentId etc, this will allow us to do much more interesting things in the future.

This type of placeholder isn't sufficient as the text document can change while the file is uploading – in that case the text will be replaced incorrectly. Instead it should work like the image placeholder with a widget decoration that is then searched for again to find it's current position once the file upload is complete

I'd use the DocumentIcon for now, it looks like a file

Sorry about interrupt you guys. I really look forward to including this feature. If file upload using just link that I'm wondering that how to remove the file from storage. |
This is an extension of #280 including the original commit there, rebased and extended on current master.
For further details see the original PR.
I've added support for a basic placeholder during upload, added a suitable menu icon and fixed compatibility issues during during rebasing
