       This class implements a representation of file uploads for Dancer.  These objects are accessible within
       route handlers via the request->uploads keyword. See Dancer::Request for details.

       filename
           Returns the filename as sent by the client.

       basename
           Returns basename for "filename".

       tempname
           Returns the name of the temporary file the data has been saved to.

           This will be in e.g. /tmp, and given a random name, with no file extension.

       link_to
           Creates a hard link to the temporary file. Returns true for success, false for failure.

               $upload->link_to('/path/to/target');

       file_handle
           Returns a read-only file handle on the temporary file.

       content
           Returns a scalar containing the contents of the temporary file.

       copy_to
           Copies the temporary file using File::Copy. Returns true for success, false for failure.

               $upload->copy_to('/path/to/target')

       size
           The size of the upload, in bytes.

       headers
           Returns a hash ref of the headers associated with this upload.

           # somewhere in your view:
           <form action="/upload" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
             <input type="file" name="filename">
             <input type="submit">
           </form>

           # and then in your application handler:
           post '/upload' => sub {
             my $file = request->upload('filename');
             $file->copy_to($upload_dir);  # or whatever you need
           };
