The regular [[ikiwiki/PageSpec]] syntax is expanded with the following
additional tests:

specified size. The size defaults to being in bytes, but "kb", "mb", "gb"
etc can be used to specify the units.

use `!ispage()` ; if you only want to allow wiki pages to be uploaded
as attachments, use `ispage()`.

include a glob in the type, for example `mimetype(image/*)`.
