When uploading larger files, cgi.FieldStorage decides to store the files
in an unnamed temporary file in /tmp while parsing the form-data. This
is counter-intuitive and might not work, if the partition hosting /tmp/
is too small. Therefore, we overwrite FieldStorage's make_file() method
to use the targetDir as upload path.
While we're at it, we also use NamedTemporaryFile instead of
TemporaryFile, because that lets us use os.link() to create a "copy" of
the file-data without writing it to disk a second time. This does not
work for small data, because small data is kept in an BytesIO object and
thus never written to file automatically. For this case, we keep the old
code, that's writing down files manually.
We have to inline-define CustomFieldStorage, because FieldStorage will
instantiate a new FieldStorage instance for parsing the parts of a
multipart/form-data body and thus we cannot pass targetDir via
__init__() argument.

Due to the upgrade to charset-normalizer 2.0.4 guessing the encoding
inside the tests did not work anymore and caused the umlaut tests to
fail. Explicitly specifying the encoding on the requests' response
object fixes this.
SERVEFILE_DEFAULT_PORT and SERVEFILE_SECONDARY_PORT can be used to
specify ports used in the servefile tests. This can be useful if the
default port 8080 and the secondary port 8081 (for the -p test) are
already in use. To allow automatic choosing of a free port 0 can be
specified to tell the test code to automatically select a free port.
When checking the version the test now gets a
CryptographyDeprecationWarning plus an import code line instead of the
version. As a workaround we now ignore the first two lines when checking
for the version string.
servefile is now a valid python package. The single servefile.py can
still be used as a script by just putting it into PATH and making it
executable. Additionally when installed via pip a wrapper script is
created, calling the module's main(). python -m servefile works as well.
In python3 filter returns a generator instead of a list. When -4 or
-6 is used or if the host system has either of those address
families disabled len() gets called onto this filter expression
which results into a crash. This commit makes a filter expression
out of this statement and also adds a test for ipv4-only downloading.
When serving a `../` as directory (with `-l`), servefile creates an
endless 301-redirect loop. Having an absolute path fixes this. Since
this error might come up any time again, we're setting `targetDir` to
its absolute path right from the beginning and never have to worry about
it later on.
