Introduced a simple way to work with files inside frontend

The usecase of this code is something like this: let image that user is making a
protonmail or any another application where content inside frontend (=browser
storage) some secret user's data that shouldn't be exposed to backend. Secret
key for example or anything like that.

This code allows to developer to convert any `Array[Byte]` from frontend to URL
as simple call `FileService.asURL`, create an anchor to download it as
`FileService.asAnchor` and asynchronously convert any uploaded `File` to
`Array[Byte]` as `FileService.asBytesArray`, or to `InputStream` via
`FileService.asInputStream`.

Unfortunately scalatags doesn't support `download` attribute and I need to make
it by hand. I've opened a PR: com-lihaoyi/scalatags#212 to
introduce it, but it might be a while until it is included to release.

`FileService.asInputStream` is using `FileReaderSync` that is also missed inside
scala-js-dom. I've opened a PR:
scala-js/scala-js-dom#424 but it might be a while. Also,
this is draft API but it is supported by majority of modern browsers:
