Description changed by Sultan:

Old description:

> In ticket #31701, I suggested making **FileDescriptor** a subclass of
> **DeferredAttribute** and using `FileField.attname` to access the field
> data, leaving `FileField.name` for users to freely and easily create
> their own subclasses (e.g. **ContentFileField**,
> **JSONContentFileField**, etc.) ), to represent data in a different
> format; `JSONContentFileField.attname` represents **File object** (field
> data) and `JSONContentFileField.name` represents deserialized JSON
> document to Python object (client data).
>
> In the patch attached to ticket #31701, I fixed **FileField**,
> **ImageField** and their descriptors, but missed the **FieldFile**, which
> uses `FileField.name` when saving / deleting a file. I checked everything
> and made the necessary changes (2 lines).

New description:

 In ticket #31701, I suggested making FileDescriptor a subclass of
 DeferredAttribute and using `FileField.attname` to access the field data,
 leaving `FileField.name` so that users can freely and easily create their
 own custom subclasses that can not only save data to files, but also
 represent the same data with a different data type by attaching
 `FileFiled.name` to a particular descriptor (just as it is implemented in
 the `models.ForeignKey`).

 In the patch attached to ticket #31701, I fixed FileField, ImageField and
 their descriptors, but missed the FieldFile, which still uses
 FileField.name when saving/deleting a file. I checked everything and made
 the necessary changes (2 lines).
