User paths exposed on file drop

Sam seemed concerned on #webkit that this was a user privacy violation.  I'm not sure that it is (what do paths really matter?), but we certainly seem to take care not to expose them in other places (like the File object or on input.value).

This is a clone of https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25882, which was changed to be Chromium-specific. It was closed since the Chromium port has been partially patched to address this issue, but the fix was not perfect, since paths are still exposed when dropping on an editable area.
