cgi-io: add download operation

Add a new `cgi-download` applet which allows to retrieve the contents
of regular files or block devices.

In order to initiate a transfer, a POST request in x-www-form-urlencoded
format must be sent to the applet, with one field "sessionid" holding
the login session and another field "path" containing the file path to
download.

Further optional fields are "filename" which - if present - will cause
the download applet to set a Content-Dispostition header and "mimetype"
which allows to let the applet respond with a specific type instead of
the default "application/octet-stream".

Below is an example for the required acl rules to grant download access
to files or block devices:

    ubus call session grant '{
        "ubus_rpc_session": "...",
        "scope": "cgi-io",
        "objects": [
            [ "download", "read" ]
        ]
    }'

    ubus call session grant '{
        "ubus_rpc_session": "...",
        "scope": "file",
        "objects": [
            [ "/etc/config/*", "read" ],
            [ "/dev/mtdblock*", "read" ]
        ]
    }'
