Description
https://w3c.github.io/webdriver/#element-click
If the element is an input element in the file upload state return error with error code invalid argument.
Looks like this is because it can open a picker, but per the spec the picker must not open if the element is disabled. Can we allow such disabled elements here?

Start with the WebDriver Element Click algorithm and compare its file-upload-state rule with the HTML file upload state activation behavior linked in the issue. Review the referenced web-platform-tests pull request for the affected case. Done means the specification and relevant behavior consistently allow a disabled file input without opening a picker.
