Always truncate instead. The padding risked something not noticing the
content was bad and getting a file that was corrupted in a novel way
with the padding "X" at the end. A truncated file is better.
Made the data-length header required even for v0. This simplifies the
implementation, and doesn't preclude extra verification being done for
v0.
The connectionWaitVar is an ugly hack. In servePut, nothing waits
on the waitvar, and I could not find a good way to make anything wait on
it.
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.
