This changes the RequestClient::start_request() method to take a URL
object instead of a URL string as argument. All callers of the method
already had a URL object anyway, and start_request() in turn parses the
URL string back into a URL object. This removes this unnecessary
conversion.
This changes client methods so that they return the IPC response's
return value directly - instead of the response struct - for IPC
methods which only have a single return value.
The current ProtocolServer was really only used for requests, and with
the recent introduction of the WebSocket service, long-lasting
connections with another server are not part of it. To better reflect
this, this commit renames it to RequestServer.
This commit also changes the existing 'protocol' portal to 'request',
the existing 'protocol' user and group to 'request', and most mentions
of the 'download' aspect of the request to 'request' when relevant, to
make everything consistent across the system.
Note that LibProtocol still exists as-is, but the more generic Client
class and the more specific Download class have both been renamed to a
more accurate RequestClient and Request to match the new names.
This commit only change names, not behaviors.
The WebSocket service isolates communication with a WebSocket to its
own isolated process. Similar to other isolating services, it has its
own user and group.

(...and ASSERT_NOT_REACHED => VERIFY_NOT_REACHED)
Since all of these checks are done in release builds as well,
let's rename them to VERIFY to prevent confusion, as everyone is
used to assertions being compiled out in release.
We can introduce a new ASSERT macro that is specifically for debug
checks, but I'm doing this wholesale conversion first since we've
accumulated thousands of these already, and it's not immediately
obvious which ones are suitable for ASSERT.
When receiving a file descriptor over IPC, the receiver must now call
take_fd() on the IPC::File to take over the descriptor. Otherwise,
IPC::File will close the file on destruction.
