Detailed Description

This class represents the promise to save some files from a particular draft file area into a particular file area.

It is used beause the necessary information about what to save is to hand in the question_attempt::process_response_files() method, but we don't know if this question attempt will actually be saved in the database until later, when the question_engine_unit_of_work is saved, if it is.
