Support for gemini files upload

[hadley]

Since presumably other providers will add this too.

Maybe something like this?

chat <- chat_gemini()
uploaded <- chat$upload_file("my-big-pdf.pdf")
chat$chat(uploaded, "What's the title?")

Gemini automatically deletes uploaded files after two days.

Thanks for this, I am very interested since gemini is so far my choice as an LLM. Will this work also for text and image files?

@larry77 yes, for any file.
