0bebbe3290 fix warnings from rst2html 
Apparently the in-line link syntax with "<>" in them causes these warnings. I
don't know why. I changed them all to a slightly more verbose syntax.

Thanks to Mike Kazantzsev's review comment
(https://github.com/tahoe-lafs/tahoe-lafs/pull/67#commitcomment-4561370), I
moved the links to the end of each section.

82579cec96 magic first line tells emacs to use utf8+bom 
Add ".. -*- coding: utf-8-with-signature -*-" to the first line of each .rst
file. This tells emacs to treat the file contents as utf-8, and also to prepend
a so-called utf-8 "bom" marker at the beginning of the file. This patch also
prepends those markers to each of those files.

4e0a8d8d4f fix small issues in formatting 
* fix warning from "rst2html --verbose" by not using the in-line hyperlink
  syntax. The warning said::

    known_issues.rst:261: (INFO/1) Hyperlink target "google chart api" is not referenced.

* remove dead code (no-longer-referenced link), thus fixing another warning

* change links to relative files to be just $FILENAME instead of
  file:$FILENAME, which I think will fix the problem of broken links on the
  trac and github, e.g. the link in
  https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/trunk/docs/known_issues.rst ,
  which ought to go to
  https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/trunk/docs/cautions.rst , but
  instead goes to file:///cautions.rst

0a89b738bc Make introducer.furl unguessable. Closes #1802. 
Previously, Introducers always used a swissnum of "introducer", so
anyone who could learn the (public) tubid of the introducer would be
able to connect to and use it. This changes new Introducers to use the
same randomly-generated swissnum as clients and storage servers do, so
that you absolutely must learn the introducer.furl from someone who
knows it already before you can connect.

This change also moves the location of the file that stores
introducer.furl from BASEDIR/introducer.furl to
BASEDIR/private/introducer.furl, since that's where we keep the private
things. The first time an introducer is started with the new code, it
will move any existing BASEDIR/introducer.furl into the new place.

Note that this will not change the FURL of existing introducers: it will
only affect newly created ones. When you change an introducer's FURL,
you must also update all of the nodes (clients and storage servers)
which connect to it, so upgrading it to an unguessable one isn't
something we should do automatically.

e58a01270b Change the arbitrary URI support from implied to explicit 
The move webapi function now takes a target_type argument which lets it
know whether the target is a subdirectory name or URI. This is an
improvement over the old system in which the move handler tried to guess
whether the target was a name or a URI. Also fixed a little docs
copypaste problem and tweaked some line wrapping.

b29d0920d3 Adding 'move' button to web UI, closes #1579 
This adds "move file" capability to the web UI's directory display. The
support and test framework is heavily based on the similar "rename file"
feature. Unit tests and documentation are included. Multiple in-progress
versions of this patch may be found in ticket 1579. This version
includes arbitrary URI target support and is compatible with the change
from tahoe_css to tahoe.css.

25bee8ade6 update NEWS and other docs in preparation for 1.8.0rc1 
in particular, merge the various 1.8.0b1/b2 sections, and remove the
datestamp. NEWS gets updated just before a release, doesn't need to precisely
describe pre-release candidates, and the datestamp gets updated just before
the final release is tagged

Also, I removed the BOM from some files. My toolchain made it hard to retain,
and BOMs in UTF-8 don't make a whole lot of sense anyway. Sorry if that
messes anything up.

496802420e Fix handling of correctly encoded unicode filenames (#534) 
Tahoe CLI commands working on local files, for instance 'tahoe cp' or 'tahoe
backup', have been improved to correctly handle filenames containing non-ASCII
characters.
  
In the case where Tahoe encounters a filename which cannot be decoded using the
system encoding, an error will be returned and the operation will fail.  Under
Linux, this typically happens when the filesystem contains filenames encoded
with another encoding, for instance latin1, than the system locale, for
instance UTF-8.  In such case, you'll need to fix your system with tools such
as 'convmv' before using Tahoe CLI.
  
All CLI commands have been improved to support non-ASCII parameters such as
filenames and aliases on all supported Operating Systems except Windows as of
now.

a1fa80fc0c docs: install.html -> quickstart.html 
It is not called "installing" because that implies that it is going to change the configuration of your operating system. It is not called "building" because that implies that you need developer tools like a compiler. Also I added a stern warning against looking at the "InstallDetails" wiki page, which I have renamed to "AdvancedInstall".

* change t=mkdir-with-children to not use multipart/form encoding. Instead,
  the request body is all JSON. t=mkdir-immutable uses this format too.
* make nodemaker.create_immutable_dirnode() get convergence from SecretHolder,
  but let callers override it
* raise NotDeepImmutableError instead of using assert()
* add mutable= argument to DirectoryNode.create_subdirectory(), default True

768c76aa5f webapi: use t=mkdir-with-children instead of a children= arg to t=mkdir . 
This is safer: in the earlier API, an old webapi server would silently ignore
the initial children, and clients trying to set them would have to fetch the
newly-created directory to discover the incompatibility. In the new API,
clients using t=mkdir-with-children against an old webapi server will get a
clear error.

Brian Warner
ef1b6ae8e3 Tolerate unknown URI types in directory structures. Part of #683. 
The idea is that future versions of Tahoe will add new URI types that this
version won't recognize, but might store them in directories that we *can*
read. We should handle these "objects from the future" as best we can.
Previous releases of Tahoe would just explode. With this change, we'll
continue to be able to work with everything else in the directory.

The code change is to wrap anything we don't recognize as an UnknownNode
instance (as opposed to a FileNode or DirectoryNode). Then webapi knows how
to render these (mostly by leaving fields blank), deep-check knows to skip
over them, deep-stats counts them in "count-unknown". You can rename and
delete these things, but you can't add new ones (because we wouldn't know how
to generate a readcap to put into the dirnode's rocap slot, and because this
lets us catch typos better).

2c9a854f10 CLI: reconcile webopen changes 
I think this is largely attributable to a cleanup patch I'd made
which never got committed upstream somehow, but at any rate various
conflicting changes to webopen had been made. This cleans up the
conflicts therein, and hopefully brings 'tahoe webopen' in line with
other cli commands.

Remove docs/install-details.html and README.win32 for now (see #282).
Remove checks for pywin32 and pyopenssl in Makefile -- that is (or will be) automated by setuptools.
Remove twisted from setup_requires.  This causes the problem in which Nevow doesn't declare its dependency on Twisted (#440) to yield a clear ImportError mentioning Twisted and to fail repeatedly, rather than yielding a weird ImportError and working on the second identical attempt.
Fix Makefile to set PATH so that trial and twistd can be found by "make test" after Twisted was installed into support/ during "make"

151f69d9b5 webapi.txt: overhaul documentation. API changes are as follows: 
* download/upload localdir=/localfile= has been removed. This sort of ambient

   soon we'll have 'cp -r' in the CLI to replace it.
 * GET save=filename -> GET filename=filename&save=true
 * GET t=download removed
 * side-effect causing operations now use POST where appropriate, not PUT
 * to create multiple directories, either use
   * POST /uri/DIRCAP/parent?t=mkdir&name=child  (more form/browser oriented)
   * POST /uri/DIRCAP/parent/child?t=mkdir (more machine oriented)
   The t=mkdir-p form is still accepted, but not preferred (since it leaks
   the child name queryarg into the logs)
 * use PUT /uri/MUTABLEFILECAP or PUT /uri/DIRCAP/child (on a mutable file) to
   replace its contents, or POST /same?t=upload from forms
 * response bodies and codes are better specified than before

7caec120b3 docs: webapi: Add concise shorthand for options, input, output, and statuses to the operation descriptions... 
I'm not convinced if this is the best way to do this, but I find it
handy to have a conscise "quick reference" for the webapi operations
which summarize all related I/O.

Another possibility is to reject this patch, but create a separate
"webapi_quickref.html" with a concise table.

I chose to remove mention of non-convergent encoding, not because I dislike non-convergent encoding, but because that option isn't currently expressed in the API and in order to shorten architecture.txt.  I renamed "URI" to "Capability".  I did some editing, including updating a few places that treated all capabilities as CHK-capabilities and that mentioned that distributed SSKs were not yet implemented.

These changes are a work-in-progress -- there are many incomplete and incorrect parts, but the install.html and running.html files 
are complete and should work (and they are delightfully concise!).  I'm pushing this just to let people see incremental progress 
and to solicit feedback.  "Testing out" the install.html and running.html files and submitting patches or bug reports would be 
quite welcome.

More to come.

59d6c3c822 decentralized directories: integration and testing 
* use new decentralized directories everywhere instead of old centralized directories
 * provide UI to them through the web server
 * provide UI to them through the CLI
 * update unit tests to simulate decentralized mutable directories in order to test other components that rely on them
 * remove the notion of a "vdrive server" and a client thereof
 * remove the notion of a "public vdrive", which was a directory that was centrally published/subscribed automatically by the tahoe node (you can accomplish this manually by making a directory and posting the URL to it on your web site, for example)
 * add a notion of "wait_for_numpeers" when you need to publish data to peers, which is how many peers should be attached before you start.  The default is 1.
 * add __repr__ for filesystem nodes (note: these reprs contain a few bits of the secret key!)
 * fix a few bugs where we used to equate "mutable" with "not read-only".  Nowadays all directories are mutable, but some might be read-only (to you).
 * fix a few bugs where code wasn't aware of the new general-purpose metadata dict the comes with each filesystem edge
 * sundry fixes to unit tests to adjust to the new directories, e.g. don't assume that every share on disk belongs to a chk file.

d777283e9e implement preliminary log publisher/gatherer 
This creates a Referenceable object that will eventually be able to publish
log events to a remote subscriber (at present all it can do is provide
version information). The FURL for this logport is written to 'logport.furl'.

In addition, if a file named 'log_gatherer.furl' is present, the given target
will be contacted and offered access to the logport. This can be used by a
centralized logging agent to subscribe to logs, e.g. from all the nodes in a
centrally-maintained storage grid. (think syslog -r, but with all the
security properties of FURLs, and permitting non-printable strings and
structured data).

Once this framework matures a bit, it will be moved into Foolscap.

89d2e1ac57 webapi.txt: some editing, and remove the localfile feature and the manifest feature 
My motivation to remove these features is as per:

http://allmydata.org/pipermail/tahoe-dev/2007-August/000067.html

However, I haven't heard back from Brian yet, so I'm actually going to put them back in the next patch so that I can compare the two versions of webapi.txt side by side.

d65d02fa58 add a 'rename' button to the webish dir view 
alongside the 'del' button is now presented a 'rename' button, which takes
the user to a new page, the 't=rename-form' page, which asks ther user for
the new name of the child and ultimately submits a POST request to the dir
for 't=rename' to perform the actual rename i.e. an attach followed by a
delete of children.

72fc8c5cb8 web: use real JSON instead of the fake stubs 
Also include the encoder portion of Bob Ippolito's simplejson-1.7.1 as
allmydata.util.json_encoder . simplejson is distributed under a more liberal
license than Tahoe (looks to be modified BSD), so redistributing it should be ok.
