saveProductFile2

Attach a new file (manual, brochure, price list, spec sheet) to product card, or replace an existing file.

To retrieve a list of files attached to a product, call getProducts and see the element "relatedFiles".

This call is identical to saveProductFile, but the input parameter file takes the file's contents in raw binary format (unlike saveProductFile which requires it to be base64-encoded).
