Owner

Upload a plain text file (.txt) as a notecard.

Behaviour

File > Upload menu gains "Notecard (.txt)..." (multi-select allowed).
Each picked file becomes a new notecard in the Notecards folder, named after the file without its extension (Shopping list.txt -> Shopping list), trimmed to the inventory name limit (63 chars).
The text is read as UTF-8 (a BOM is stripped; CRLF becomes LF) and stored as the notecard body. Notecard size limit (65,536 bytes of text) is enforced: an oversized file is refused with a message, never silently truncated.
Notecard uploads are free; no cost confirmation.
Optional: dropping a .txt onto the viewer window does the same.

Notes

Create the item, then upload the body through the existing notecard save path (UpdateNotecardAgentInventory cap), as the notecard editor does.
Each upload is reported (success / failure with reason); no blind retries.
