It is a core feature, but the tt_content field 'image' was never 
configured as a file reference type by the core.

The Upgrade Wizard does not upgrade fields from extensions or modified 
fields; it is only meant to handle fields as they were supplied by the 
core distributions.

Not that I know. The number of people who changed the TCA of core tables 
is rather limited.

Extensions can have an update script that can be run from within the EM 
to perform updates. You could write one.
