Description

I was discussing all the different contest systems at BOI and came up with a few feature requests that we could copy from other contest systems :)

Someone mentioned that being able to copy code from the text editor and paste it into the judge system is really convenient. I think we've also considered adding this in the estonian fork. We could add a textarea to the task submission page as an alternative to the file select box.

Research direction

Start at the task submission page and inspect how the existing file select box sends submissions. Add a textarea as an alternative input while preserving the current upload path, then verify that code entered in the textarea reaches the judge system successfully.
