Very basic single-file binary file uploading via Elm port. | |
One area for improvement is in error handling. Since I only care if a file | |
uploads successfully, that's all I'm passing in the callback port. | |
One known issue is since we execute the port on "change", uploading | |
the same file multiple times in a row will not have any affect since | |
the DOM element doesn't "change" if the same file gets selected. | |
