    Don't display/log an error if text/menu/upload.* doesn't exist

    "upload.*" is an optional menu file, so this should've always used the P_NOERROR flag, but the bug just fixed (in commit b656e19ff) masked this
    issue.

    Modified Files:
    exec/load/shell_lib.js
    Log Message:
    upload_file() will now fall-back to blind/batch upload if no filename provided

    If the user doesn't type a filename (just hits enter) and there are either files in the batch upload queue and/or there's an 'Uploads' directory configured by the sysop, then prompt if they want to start a batch
    upload now and do that (using the new bbs.batch_upload() method).

    This change requires the latest SBBS v3.20a changes committed in this same push.

    Change made to accomodate users/sysops like Chris Mifsud from Facebook:
    "For decades using other bbs software I always just pressed enter without entering a file name and it goes straight to the zmodem upload and then I select the file and hit upload no problem."

    Since only the default ("Synchronet Classic") command shell currently uses
    this library, this change only works when using that command shell. When we port other shells from Baja to JS (and this lib), they'll get this feature automatically.
