Base64 can include '/', and with UUIDs and keys both used in routes,
the encoding needs to avoid that. Use base64url everywhere in the HTTP
protocol for consistency.
This came down to SendBytes waiting on the waitv. Nothing ever filled
it.
Only Annex.Proxy needs the waitv, and it handles filling it. So make it
optional.
Both are only at bare proof of concept stage. Still need to deal with
signaling validity and invalidity, and checking it.
And there's a bad bug: After -JN*2 requests, another request hangs!
So, I think it's failing to free up the Annex worker and end of request
lifetime.
Perhaps I need to use this:

The reason to use removeBeforeRemoteEndTime is twofold.
First, removeBefore sends two protocol commands. Currently, the HTTP
protocol runner only supports sending a single command per invocation.
Secondly, the http server gets a monotonic timestamp from the client. So
translating back to a POSIXTime would be annoying.
The timestamp flow with a proxy will be:
- client gets timestamp, which gets the monotonic timestamp from the
proxied remote via the proxy. The timestamp is currently not
proxied when there is a single proxy.
- client calls remove-before
- http server calls removeBeforeRemoteEndTime which sends REMOVE-BEFORE
to the proxied remote.
This is less efficient, but it guarantees that the timestamps that the
client is sending are local timestamps, which turns out to be necessary
for the HTTP PTP protocol server.
