Allow to upload files through the ZAP API

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I wish to use ZAP as a daemon in a container as part of a CI pipeline.

However, to do so, I either need to roll a new ZAP image for every type of target I wish to examine or I need to use ZAP as the base image itself.

With GitLab services, you cannot modify the running image on load, so you end up having to run ZAP as the “runner” which is not ideal.

Describe the solution you’d like

I would like any API endpoint that allows for loading from a file on the local filesystem to either:

1. Have an associated upload endpoint that will put the file into the correct location
2. Allow me to upload the entire file contents as part of a POST
   • I’m not 100% sure this will work for everything but it will certainly work for anything plain-text

Describe alternatives you’ve considered

Note, I didn’t say that ZAP doesn’t have storage. I said that I don’t have access to the storage.

Told you it must be subtle. (Yes you kinda covered this earlier but this made it clear.)
