[EWM]: Add attachment presentation for Details slot in Overview layout on Work Item editor

Context: We need to be able to add attachment to a work item to give more information in case of a defect or an attachment. Plus, to simplify the usage / ergonomy, we need to customize the work item editor by placing presentations in different sections.

Problem: In the work item editor in web client, we want to add an attachment presentation in:
- Overview layout and in Details slot 
However, when we want to create a work item with this editor, we cannot see the attachments in the proper slot but we can see it in the tab Links (layout Links).

    As per the tool architecture, t is not possible to include attachments in the Details section. The team has shared workarounds of how it can appear in Overview and other tabs. I would like to understand why having attachments available in the overview tab (but not under details) is not sufficient? Thanks
