Description Florian Müllner 2016-05-06 15:45:39 UTC 
See patch.

Bug 755573 is related, but as I'm only adding support for the existing formats/services, I'll leave the other bug for supporting generic file uploads.

Note that I'll attach two variants of the same patch - the second one avoids adding new strings, so we can apply it to the stable branch without breaking the string freeze.

For users, it is not immediately obvious why they can copy file contents
in a text/image editor and paste it into Polari for uploading, but trying
to paste the file itself only inserts a (most likely useless) URI.
Instead, accept file pastes and upload the contents to the appropriate
service if possible.
