Bug Description
In several spots we upload files (bug attachments, product release files, etc) and have to duplicate code to process those files and submit them to the Librarian. A FileUploadWidget that handled a lot of the common tasks would be useful to have.
Here are some thoughts from BjornT:
" 1) Have the widget simply return a FileUpload object
2) Have the widget return a LibraryFileAlias
3) Return a raw byte stream, adding some methods to the widget for
getting the filename and content type.
I think the second option would be best; but it depends on what the
callsites look like."

Having the FileUploadWidget return a LibraryFileAlias will incur an overhead if the file is rejected.
