What does this PR implement/fix? Explain your changes.
This PR adds first-class support for attaching arbitrary additional files (e.g., ONNX models, binary representations, logs, custom metadata) to an OpenMLRun object and having them uploaded to the OpenML server when the run is published.
The PR introduces:
A new internal storage container:
A public method:
Updated _get_file_elements() so that these files are included in the upload payload sent via _perform_api_call().
This matches the API design discussed in issue #1332 and the extension use-case described in openml-tensorflow@259f356.
Why is this change necessary? What is the problem it solves?
OpenML extensions (e.g., openml-tensorflow, ONNX flow exporters, model provenance modules) need a standard mechanism to attach arbitrary files to a run.
Until now:
-There was no generic user-facing API to upload additional artifacts.
-Extensions had to patch _get_file_elements() or depend on private methods.
This PR introduces a clean, extensible, documented mechanism for extensions and users to attach files to a run without modifying low-level upload code.
