Unable to read a file from the clipboard on Chrome OS (when Google Docs can.)

Project Member Reported by paulkin...@google.com, Jul 5

Issue description

Chrome Version:69.0.3473.0 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)
OS: Chrome OS - 69.0.3473.0 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)

Platform	10820.0.0 (Official Build) dev-channel eve
Firmware Version	Google_Eve.9584.151.0
Customisation ID	GOOGLE-EVE
ARC	4861648


What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Copy a file from the Files App (CTRL-C is fine)
(2) Visit https://drop-test.glitch.me/ and do a CTRL-V

What is the expected result?

The files object should be populated on the event.clipboardData - it's not. I should be able to read the file so that I can display it in my web app.

Doing the same in Google Docs works absolutely fine. It looks like we are whitelisting Google Docs, and if it's good enough for Google it should be good enough for all sites


What happens instead?

The files object is empty. I can't do anything with the file.
