immutable: downloader accepts notifications of buckets even if those notifications arrive after he has begun downloading shares.
...
This can be useful if one of the ones that he has already begun downloading fails. See #287 for discussion. This fixes part of #287 which part was a regression caused by #928 , namely this fixes fail-over in case a share is corrupted (or the server returns an error or disconnects). This does not fix the related issue mentioned in #287 if a server hangs and doesn't reply to requests for blocks.

Unless we are using a sufficiently new version of Nevow, in which case if it prints out warnings then this is a hard test failure. :-)

immutable: download from the first servers which provide at least K buckets instead of waiting for all servers to reply
...
This should put an end to the phenomenon I've been seeing that a single hung server can cause all downloads on a grid to hang. Also it should speed up all downloads by (a) not-waiting for responses to queries that it doesn't need, and (b) downloading shares from the servers which answered the initial query the fastest.
Also, do not count how many buckets you've gotten when deciding whether the download has enough shares or not -- instead count how many buckets to *unique* shares that you've gotten. This appears to improve a slightly weird behavior in the current download code in which receiving >= K different buckets all to the same sharenumber would make it think it had enough to download the file when in fact it hadn't.
This patch needs tests before it is actually ready for trunk.

test_runner: cleanup, refactor common code into a non-executable method

Having both test_node() and test_client() (one of which calls the other) felt

common do_create() helper method.

tahoe_backup.py: display warnings on errors instead of stopping the whole backup. Fix #729 .
...
This patch displays a warning to the user in two cases:
1. When special files like symlinks, fifos, devices, etc. are found in the
local source.
2. If files or directories are not readables by the user running the 'tahoe
backup' command.
In verbose mode, the number of skipped files and directories is printed at the
end of the backup.
Exit status returned by 'tahoe backup':
- 0 everything went fine
- 1 the backup failed
- 2 files were skipped during the backup

contrib/fuse/runtests.py: Fix #888 , configure settings in tahoe.cfg and don't treat warnings as failure
...
Fix a few bitrotten pieces in the FUSE test script. It now configures tahoe
node settings by editing tahoe.cfg which is the new supported method.
It alos tolerate warnings issued by the mount command, the cause of these
warnings is the same as in #876 (contrib/fuse/runtests.py doesn't tolerate
deprecations warnings).
