Custom key keyname

Hello,

the module works ok for me, but there is no way to change the keyname of the uploaded post data. I.e it is hard-coded to 'attachment' in the module. Can you please change line 132 in index.js from:
... keyname: 'attachment' ...
to
... keyname: options.keyname || 'attachment' ...

That way I'll be able to use the module from here. Otherwise I'll use my own fork ;)

Multiple files in a single upload?

is it possible? I need to upload file pairs. also, the server currently expects (after the upload) an array of objects containing path and fieldname - will this tool generate that?
