We save files with a random suffix, to avoid conflicts. But we don't need to upload those files the same way. We can use the intended file name.

This requires a change to the interface of uploader.UploaderBackend subclasses: def copy now need to have a second parameter, of type database.Original.name. That will allow ArchiveBackend.copy to use name, instead of filename.name, as the destination bucket and filename.
