Issue:
how to binding for multi files upload
#1263's merged solution take no effect for multi files uploading.

my code:
```go
// MailUpload struct for e-mail
type MailUpload struct {
	Mail string 			     `json:"mail" form:"mail" binding:"required"`
	Attachments  []*multipart.FileHeader `json:"attachment,omitempty" form:"attachments" binding:"required"` // change form to "attachments[]" take no effect also.
}

func Mail(c *gin.Context) {
	var postData MailUpload
	err := c.Bind(&postData)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
		c.String(http.StatusBadRequest, err.Error())
	} else {
		fmt.Printf("%#v\n", postData)
		c.String(http.StatusOK, "ok")
	}
}
```

request send command by curl:
```bash
curl -v -H "Content-Type:multipart/form-data" -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/latest/newmail -F "attachments[]=@./2019-5-1_day_trends.png" -F mail=123
```

my error: `Key: 'MailUpload.Attachments' Error:Field validation for 'Attachments' failed on the 'required' tag`

Pull request:
binding: add support of multipart multi files (#1878)
Fix #1878
Add support multi files on bind multipart requests.

Example:
```
type s struct {
	Files []*multipart.FileHeader `form:"files"`
}
```
