Add right-click options to choose the primary attachment for an item with multiple attachments

There are cases that a given item has multiple attachments, with could arise due to merging options, or could be done on purpose; for example, for an item of a journal article, I may want to store its pdf file, its supplement materials pdf file, and possibly some other pdf files such as its accepted version. If this happens, one can't choose which one to show in the preview pane, or which file to open when clicked.

This option is also needed especially in group libraries, where different users may import the same entry individually and make comments; then, when they notice that there is a duplicate in the library, it would be troublesome if they want to merge the duplicates since they can't choose which pdf to show.

+1. All modern papers have supplements these days, increasingly with the most important parts of the methods in those. It would be great to have a way to manage these multiple attachments better.

:+1: Alternately, allow drag-n-drop sorting of attachments. Currently, it appears to be sorted by file name and opens the first one.

edit: I was wrong on the file name selection assumption. Maybe the earliest file added?
