/**
 * Clone a message and clear or replace its file attachments.
 *
 * - Performs a deep clone via `structuredClone` to avoid mutating the source.
 * - Removes the single-file `file` field and empties the `files` array.
 * - If `replaceFileAttachmentsWith` is given, swaps out any file-type
 *   attachments; otherwise filters them out entirely.
 *
 * @param message  The original `IMessage` to copy.
 * @param replaceFileAttachmentsWith
 *   Optional attachment to substitute for each file attachment.
 * @returns A new message object with `file`, `files`, and `attachments` updated.
