2d9b0a7a5e Pithos: open HTML files as a page, or read them as text
An .html file in a drive could only be read as source. It can now also be
opened as a web page in a new tab (Theseus tab, browser tab, or the system
browser from the desktop app), with the CSS, images, scripts and pages
beside it loading as they would from a website.

The page is served under a sandbox CSP without allow-same-origin, so its
scripts run in an opaque origin: they cannot read the Pithos session or
reach its API, only the files of the folder the page link covers. Links
are random, last an hour from last use (12 hours at most), and refuse
paths that leave the folder. Pages decrypt on the fly for drives hosted
on Silent Mode.

cdbc8ad93b Pithos hosting: fixes from an independent review
A server-sent file list could name paths outside the s3d folder (or the key
file in it), and a failed move back deleted every listed path. Transfers now
accept only s3d data paths, check all of them before writing, never
overwrite, and clean up only what they wrote.

A lost reply could lose or fork the drives: move-up and move-down now ask the
server who holds them before touching the local copy, and once the server is
told to release, the local copy is never removed (the release is retried).

The gateway no longer lets one account route another's access key id, refuses
. and .. in shared-key paths, strips presign parameters before re-signing,
counts upload size on disk, stops s3d before it can be restarted mid-move, and
claims sign-up proofs before checking them. The key file is never replaced
when unreadable, a local edit removes the older encrypted copy, listing pages
no longer repeat, and data hashes stream instead of loading whole files.

d00bd369b7 Pithos: run your drives on Silent Mode with your own Sia account
s3d binds one Sia account per process, so the server runs one s3d per
person (pithos-hosted), started on demand and flushed and stopped when idle.
Only the connected s3d data folder moves between PC and server; the Sia
recovery phrase never leaves the PC and nothing is re-uploaded to Sia.

Because the server holds the connection key, local Pithos encrypts names and
contents before they leave the machine, with keys from the Theseus vault (or
a local key file elsewhere). What s3d cannot do on its own, the gateway now
enforces: public folders, expiring share links and S3 keys for other people
limited to one folder with read, add-only or edit rights. Files those reach
are stored readable, since visitors have no key, and go back to encrypted
when the rule is removed. Sign-up needs a BNS name signature, a deposit or
an invite, with a per-IP limit.
