Authorize and upload a raw media file to Podbean's cloud storage via the file upload authorization endpoint so the resulting file key can be used to attach media to a podcast episode

Steps
Authenticate via Podbean's OAuth2 flow and obtain a valid access_token
Call GET /files/uploadAuthorize with access_token, filename, content_type, and filesize describing the file to be uploaded
Parse the JSON response to extract presigned_url, the expiry window in seconds, and file_key
Upload the actual file content directly to presigned_url with an HTTP PUT request, matching the content type declared in the authorization call, before the URL expires
Confirm the PUT succeeded, then pass file_key to a separate episode create or update call to attach the uploaded media
Avoid mismatches between the filesize or content_type declared in the authorization request and the actual uploaded file, since this can cause the presigned URL to reject the upload
Known gotchas
The presigned_url is time-limited, with Podbean's own documentation example showing a 600 second expiry, so the upload must complete before it lapses
The PUT goes directly to the S3-style presigned_url returned by Podbean, not to a Podbean API path, and is a separate request from the authorization call itself
uploadAuthorize only returns authorization data and a file_key, it does not attach the file to an episode; that requires a distinct episode create or update call
