This PR adds a fieldtype to allow for file uploads that aren't intended to go into an asset container.
This is intended to be used in configuration forms, not content. It will be used in #4832 to be able to upload a new file.
It uses the ajax uploader interface used by the assets fieldtype.
Since our publish forms are all ajax and not really suited to handle file uploads, this will upload the file to a temporary location when you drop it into the fieldtype, submit the path, then you can use the path on the server and do what you need with the uploaded file.
There's a middleware that'll do garbage collection and those temporary files.
