When submitting form with various fields including one optional
field for file upload, if the file filed is left empty - the
submition doesn't work.

The error is: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil

I've tracked the problem to the function 'eww-submit' which tries
to open a file for upload (the file was never initialized by the
html form).

My fix is to check if the property is set in the file "eww.el.gz" after
line 1435:

> ((equal (plist-get input :type) "file")
>  ;; FIX check if property :filename is not nil
>  (when (not (null (plist-get input :filename)))
>    (push (cons "file"
>         (list (cons "filedata"
>       (with-temp-buffer
>         (insert-file-contents
>          (plist-get input :filename))
>         (buffer-string)))
>        (cons "name" (plist-get input :name))
>        (cons "filename" (plist-get input :filename))))
>   values)))
