Inspired from DejanEnspyra

It crashes on file action :/

UIDocumentMenuViewController is depracted, use UIDocumentPickerViewController instead do get rid of the crash on file selection

There is a memory leak in this when I attach multiple images on the same view memory increases continuously.

line 218: @objc func imagePickerController(_ picker: UIImagePickerController, didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [String : Any])

should be (for swift 5 at least):

imagePickerController(_ picker: UIImagePickerController, didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [UIImagePickerController.InfoKey : Any])

Under what license is your code? is it free to use/modify?
