S3 (and gateways) always set content-length or transfer-encoding but HTTP 1.1 does not require it and proxies (e.g. HAProxy) may not include either.
Suggested by Adam K. Sumner.
* Add storageCopy(), storageMove(), and storagePathSync().
* Separate StorageFile object into separate read and write objects.
* Abstract out Posix file read/write objects.
The Perl process was exiting directly when called but that interfered with proper locking for the forked async process. Now Perl returns results to the C process which handles all errors, including signals.
Now only two types of locks can be taken: archive and backup. Most commands use one or the other but the stanza-* commands acquire both locks. This provides better protection than the old command-based locking scheme.
Move command begin to C except when it must be called after another command in Perl (e.g. expire after backup). Command begin logs correctly for complex data types like hash and list. Specify which commands will log to file immediately and set the default log level for log messages that are common to all commands. File logging is initiated from C.
Buffering now takes the pending bytes on the socket into account (when present) rather than relying entirely on select(). In some instances the final bytes would not be flushed until the connection was closed.
Previously, functions with sensitive options had to be logged at trace level to avoid exposing them. Trace level logging may still expose secrets so use with caution.
Any beginning literal portion of a filter expression is used to generate a search prefix which often helps keep the request small enough to avoid rate limiting.

The options accommodate systems where CAs are not automatically found by IO::Socket::SSL, i.e. RHEL7, or to load custom CAs.

Refactor storage layer to allow for new repository filesystems using drivers. (Reviewed by Cynthia Shang.)
Refactor IO layer to allow for new compression formats, checksum types, and other capabilities using filters. (Reviewed by Cynthia Shang.)
* Refactor Ini.pm to facilitate testing.
* Complete statement/branch coverage for Ini.pm.
* Improved functions used to test/munge manifest and info files.
* Full coverage is verified when specified.
* Modules marked with partial coverage will error if they are actually fully covered.
* Simplified test representation is DefineTest.
* Added new representation for queries in DefineTest and added API functions.
* Update modules using DefineTest to use new API.
* Fixed an issue where read-only operations that used local worker processes (i.e. restore) were creating write locks that could interfere with parallel archive-push. (Reported by Jens Wilke.)
* Simplify locking scheme. Now, only the master process will hold write locks (archive-push, backup) and not all the local and remote worker processes as before.
