Uppy: Renamed value is not sent via $_FILES[]
When renaming a file in uppy's dashboard and uploading it with XHRUpload through php, $_FILES['file']['name'] contains the original file name.
XHR Upload

Hmm yeah, that's confusing. Uppy's dashboard changes the file's metadata key name, so when using XHRUpload without the bundle option it'll be in $_POST['name']. The $_FILES array is populated from the File objects we send it, which have an immutable .name, so I don't know if we can change the filename in the $_FILES array; would be interesting to check out!

Added a note about this in https://github.com/transloadit/uppy/commit/14f8653a40d6f61ff7cba08971bb54d8d381b2c4, I don't think we can change the $_FILES[][name] value unfortunately. I hope that's clear enough!
