handling of file upload and download

[rzorzorzo]

Describe the feature

currently BodyHandler handles file uploads only for multipart or url-encoded requests. when handling http requests with large body size or for mime types other than text or json, there should be a possibility to configure the handler to store the body data in a file and add the upload file name to the context (as ist currently done for multipart requests).

in case of "the outgoing direction" in RouteToEBServiceHandlerImpl, when returning a large result, or result other than text/json from the eventbus consumer, it would be good if the result data could be returned in a file which is returned by invoking context.response().sendFile. in this case the service, instead of replying with the file content will reply with the file location. Currently a service can only reply with a Buffer, which means that the service has to load the complete file content into main memory.

Another idea would be to allow the consumer to add a stream of data to the reply.

Use cases

Example: implementing matrix client server protocol using OpenApiRouter:
