storage: remove the storage server's "remote_cancel_lease" function
...
We're removing this function because it is currently unused, because it is dangerous, and because the bug described in #1528 leaks the cancellation secret, which allows anyone who knows a file's storage index to abuse this function to delete shares of that file.
fixes #1528 (there are two patches that are each a sufficient fix to #1528 and this is one of them)

doc: eliminate the phrase "rootcap" from doc/frontends/FTP-and-SFTP.rst
...
Two different people have asked me for help, saying they couldn't figure out what a "rootcap" is. Hopefully just calling it a "cap" will make it easier for them to find out from the other docs what it is.

drop-upload: rename the 'upload.uri' parameter to 'upload.dircap', and a couple of cleanups to error messages. refs #1429
...
I rerecorded this patch, originally by David-Sarah, to use "darcs replace" instead of editing to do the renames. This uncovered one missed rename in Client.init_drop_uploader. (Which also means that code isn't exercised by the current unit tests.)
