Bug Description

While we encourage libraries to add covers to Open Library, a lot of our materials are either rare enough or not printed books and do not pull covers either from OL or our 3rd party vendor. We would like to see a cover image uploader introduced to the catalog, similar to that found in Open Library.

Thinking especially about things like kits, equipment, and local history rarities with this recommendation since they're unlikely to ever be available on Open Library or as part of a 3rd party enhancement (NoveList, Chilifresh, Content Cafe, etc.). And for systems that rely exclusively on Open Library, the ability to add covers for media (dvds, music cds, audiobooks, etc.) would also be appreciated.

I wonder if, with the advent of the staff catalog, now would be the perfect time to pursue this addition. The modal behavior in OL seems fairly straight forward.

This feature has been tested by myself and others in the Evergreen Indiana consortium. Without a pull request, I'm not sure that I can sign off on it. If someone wants to provide some guidance, I'd appreciate it.

I've pushed a working branch to collab/phasefx/lp1787968_jacket_image_uploader

The top 5 commits, though I'm happy to squash them if desired. I'm a little uncertain about the [source] tag in the asciidoc for the release notes. It didn't render the content when I tested it.
