Add a "screenshot" button in discussion / comment module

Description

A very common use case of the "discussion/comment" module is to point out some things with screenshots.
This can be the case for issues or merge requests.

Currently, we often add a screenshot to the comment "manually":

  • Take the screenshot
  • Circle if needed the thing you want to point out
  • Save the file
  • Drag & drop the file into the comment
  • Delete the file from your computer as it's useless

Proposal

The dream would be to automate this part by allowing the user to directly take a screenshot from the browser, and upload it.

An even bigger dream would be to allow the user to draw onto this screenshot.

We could add a button here: Capture_d_écran_2018-05-03_à_12.12.50

Technically, I would see to different ways:

  • With recent HTML5 features, I don't know if it's possible..
  • With a browser addon
