Move upload() and uploadChunk() into the Helper with the following signature:
upload: function(component, helper file, fileContents) {...},
uploadChunk : function(component, helper, file, fileContents, fromPos, toPos, attachId) {... }
(notice we added the 'helper' arg)
In save() call upload() like this:
helper.upload(component, helper, file1, fileContents);
In upload(), call uploadChunk() like this:
helper.uploadChunk(component, helper, file, fileContents, fromPos, toPos, '');
In uploadChunk(), call uploadChunk() like this:
helper.uploadChunk(component, helper, file, fileContents, fromPos, toPos, attachId);
