Upload files with WebView

Code requires Android 5+ 1. Set a custom WebViewChromeClient. It is implemented with inline Java code. 2. The ShowFile_Chooser event is raised when the user clicks on a "browse" button. 3. You need to get the file URI with FileProvider and call SendResult. Example based on ContentChooser...
