Dogfood (Nikola, v0.6.8): created a "key in link" share with uploads allowed. The file-picker upload works, but dropping files onto the page does nothing — unlike the main Cairn file view, which accepts drag-and-drop uploads.

Add drag-and-drop upload to the share-upload surface so it matches the main UI: a drop target with the usual dragover affordance, POSTing to the same share upload endpoint the picker already uses.

Notes:

Distinct from #179 (drag-and-drop move inside the main UI) — this is upload onto the public share-upload page.
Scope check while implementing: confirm whether the share-upload page is served by internal/share/public.go (standalone) or the main SPA in a share context, and wire the drop handler there.

Batched into the frontend batch (v0.6.9).
