Commit summary:

Extend upload api adding an option to upload files in chunks,
using UploadStash to track the unfinished upload.

Comment:

That said, a database might also help with Swift (when that finally is 
deployed). 

We have an implementation of a "chunked" upload mechanism there, but as far as 
I can tell we can't actually append to a Swift object in separate invocations. 
The client.py instead implements chunked *transfer* encoding, which is just a 
convention for streaming data in when we don't know its ultimate length. It may 
be that Russell was expecting the same thing to be happening from browser to 
server.
