Feature/fileinfo create copy (#9198)

* Initial implementation of a CopyFileInfos function that creates new FileInfo objects copied from provided FileIds with the provided user as the creator and not linked to a post yet. This can subsequently be used to copy existing attachments from another post to attach to a new post without having to re-upload the actual files

* added a unit test for the CopyFileInfos function

* resolving pull request suggestions
