Support drag and drop of images from Compose app to other applications

[hakanai]

Some of the use cases for my apps require dragging from the Compose application out into other applications, i.e. the reverse of the onExternalDrag modifier.

• Ability to select some text and drag that out to other text editors (already tracked as #322)
• Ability to drag an image to an image editor (or Discord, etc.)
• Ability to drag an image to a file explorer (or mail client, etc.)

Normal Java DnD would do this by putting the image into a Transferable which supports both image flavours and file list flavours. I guess the way the DragData interface has been modelled also allows this, by implementing multiple of its interfaces.
