File repeating section

A file repeating section works exactly like a normal repeating section, except it displays the file drag and drop upload interface, and will automatically add repetitions as files are uploaded.

Properties

type	"file-repeating-section"

All the common properties are supported, along with the properties of repeating sections.

Suggested usage

To upload multiple files, and ask for additional information about each file, use:

{
    type: "file-repeating-section",
    path: "filesWithDescription",
    heading: "Files with description",
    allowDelete: true,
    elements: [
        {type:"text", path:"description", label:"Description", required:true},
        {type:"file", path:"file", required:true}
    ]
}

To upload a simple set of files, with minimal user interface:

{
    type: "file-repeating-section",
    path: "fileSet",
    heading: "Set of files",
    allowAdd: false,
    allowDelete: false,
    elements: [
        {type:"file", path:"."}
    ]
}

In the document, the fileSet property will be an array of file values.
