Now that peers can talk to themselves, the 5-node system test won't fail
just because one of the shares was hosted on the downloader (and thus
inaccessible until recently). The 3-share push was there to avoid this
problem.
Added metadata to the bucket store, which is used to hold the share number
(but the bucket doesn't know that, it just gets a string).
Modified the codec interfaces a bit.
Try to pass around URIs to/from download/upload instead of verifierids.
URI format is still in flux.
Change the current (primitive) file encoder to use a ReplicatingEncoder
because it provides ICodecEncoder. We will be moving to the (less primitive)
file encoder (currently in allmydata.encode_new) eventually, but for now
this change lets us test out PyRS or zooko's upcoming C-based RS codec in
something larger than a single unit test. This primitive file encoder only
uses a single segment, and has no merkle trees.
Also added allmydata.util.deferredutil for a DeferredList wrapper that
errbacks (but only when all component Deferreds have fired) if there were
any errors, which unfortunately is not a behavior available from the standard
DeferredList.
