Pixelfed: Cannot post new photo with empty caption

[ansuz]

Posting with no caption returns the error: The caption must be a string.

The fix for this is probably very similar to #114, I'm not sure if uploads with no caption are supported. Maybe @dansup knows? :)

Clicking "Create post" now simply closes the modal and refreshes the page, causing the image and any modifications to be lost.

Adding nullable to this might fix it, but I haven't gotten a dev instance running yet to test.

[trwnh]

This can be closed; captions are now optional. @dansup

edit: maybe only through the experimental UI? it's acting weird with the classic uploading UI...

[dansup]

@trwnh Yes, its only possible in the experimental UI. Will be replacing the old uploader soon enough!

Indeed, omitting the caption works with the new experimental UI but makes the upload fail silently with the old uploader.
