finalizing HTTP P2p protocol some more
Added v2-v0 endpoints. These are tedious, but will be needed in order to use the HTTP protocol to proxy to repositories with older git-annex, where git-annex-shell will be speaking an older version of the protocol. Changed GET to use 422 when the content is not present. 404 is needed to detect when a protocol version is not supported.
