Improved content upload support in Instiki

Now I think there is a relation between name given when image was inserted and the file name used when the file was uploaded. (TODO: Check that this is the case). For some reason file links are sometimes lost during upgrades in some cases.

Mephisto have good content upload support.
Latest version of instiki has passenger support for file uploads.
Investigate new content upload support.
It would also be nice if file upload could be done externally e.g. via ssh.

File database schema

File upload schema

create_table "wiki_files", :force => true do |t|
  t.column "created_at",  :datetime, :null => false
  t.column "updated_at",  :datetime, :null => false
  t.column "web_id",      :integer,  :null => false
  t.column "file_name",   :string,   :null => false
  t.column "description", :string,   :null => false
end

Example data

id, created_at, updated_at, web_id, file_name, description
2, 2007-11-28 20:28:06, 2007-11-28 20:28:06, 1, wiki-textile-2007-11-28-20-10-34.zip, 
8, 2008-02-26 00:00:32, 2008-02-26 00:00:32, 1, fractal_cow.png,

The file name specified on the file link is used and not the local file name at upload
