* action=upload *
  Upload a file, or get the status of pending uploads. Several methods are available:
   * Upload file contents directly, using the "file" parameter
   * Have the MediaWiki server fetch a file from a URL, using the "url" parameter
   * Complete an earlier upload that failed due to warnings, using the "sessionkey" parameter
  Note that the HTTP POST must be done as a file upload (i.e. using multipart/form-data) when
  sending the "file". Note also that queries using session keys must be
  done in the same login session as the query that originally returned the key (i.e. do not
  log out and then log back in). Also you must get and send an edit token before doing any upload stuff.
