Add service for uploading files in the Content Editor

What does this MR do?

NOTICE: This MR is part of a larger effort to allow inserting images in the Content Editor. To get a full picture and understand how this change fits in this goal, check: !63939 (merged)

This MR implements a module that:

  • Uploads a file by sending a post request with a form data payload that contains a file attachment.
  • It takes the link property of the object returned by the upload request, which contains a Markdown link definition, and renders it using the GitLab Markdown API.
  • It extracts the canonicalSrc and src properties generated by the Markdown API and returns them.
