`up-site` will override the scheme and domain (https://example.com/)
in the links to newly uploaded files, making it possible to upload a
file from a LAN IP while obtaining an external URL in return
context: if webworkers fail to initialize within 5sec,
up2k falls back to hashing on the main-thread instead
problem: if webworkers eventually do finish init,
they would then be racing the mainthread
fix: disconnect webworkers if init timeout
additionally, gradually extend the timeout as long as
the workers are still making progress initializing
on a browser's very first visit, the first page load would not hydrate
correctly, initializing msel without file-IDs, causing medialinks
(#gf-0f6f5c0d) to throw an error
apparently the convention is that hotkeys should follow the letters
according to the layout, and not remain in the qwerty position
this breaks apart the cluster of media controls (uiojkl),
but that's the intended and expected behavior so it should be fine
when the up2k database is not enabled, only the
38400 most recent uploads are kept in memory serverside
the webui did not anticipate this, expecting the server to
finalize all dupes with just a single pass of brief handshakes
fix this by doing as many passes as necessary, only stopping if
a pass does not make any progress (filesystem-issues or some such)
file hashing became drastically slower in recent chrome versions;
* 748 MiB/s in 131.0.6778.86
* 747 MiB/s in 132.0.6834.160
* 485 MiB/s in 133.0.6943.60
* 319 MiB/s in 134.0.6998.36
the silver lining: it looks like chrome-bug 1352210 is improving
(crypto.subtle, the native hasher, now scales with multiple cores)
* 133.0.6943.60: speed peaked at 2 threads; 341 MiB/s, 485 MiB/s
* 134.0.6998.36: peak at 7; 193, 383, 383, 408, 421, 431, 438, 438
* 137.0.7151.41: peak at 8; 210, 382, 445, 513, 573, 573, 585, 598
MiB/s when hashing with 1, 2, ..., 7, 8 webworkers respectively
on a ryzen7-5800x with 2x16g 2133mhz ram
characteristics of versions between v134 and v137 are unknown
(cannot find old official builds to test), but v137 is a good
cutoff for minimizing risk of hitting chrome-bugs
meanwhile, hash-wasm scales linearly up to 8 cores;
0=328 1=377 2=738 3=947 4=1090 5=1190 6=1380 7=1530 8=1810
(0 = wasm on mainthread, no webworkers)
but it looks like chrome-bug 383568268 is making a return,
so keep the limit of max 4 threads if machine has more than
4 cores (and numCores-1 otherwise)
should catch all the garbage that macs sprinkle onto flashdrives;

android-chrome bug https://issues.chromium.org/issues/393149335
sends last-modified time `-11644473600` for all uploads
this has been fixed in chromium, but there might be similar
bugs in other browsers, so add server-side and client-side
detection for unreasonable lastmod times
previously, if the js detected a similar situation, it would
substitute the lastmod-time with the client's wallclock, but
now the server's wallclock is always preferrred as fallback
this fixes a DOM-Based XSS when preparing files for upload;
empty files would have their filenames rendered as HTML in
a messagebox, making it possible to trick users into running
arbitrary javascript by giving them maliciously-named files
note that, being a general-purpose webserver, it is still
intentionally possible to upload and execute arbitrary
javascript, just not in this unexpected manner
adds a third possible value for the `replace` property in handshakes:
* absent or False: never overwrite an existing file on the server,
and instead generate a new filename to avoid collision
* True: always overwrite existing files on the server
* "mt": only overwrite if client's last-modified is more recent
(this is the new option)
the new UI button toggles between all three options,
defaulting to never-overwrite
when hashing files on android-chrome, read a contiguous range of
several chunks at a time, ensuring each read is at least 48 MiB
and then slice that cache into the correct chunksizes for hashing
especially on GrapheneOS Vanadium (where webworkers are forbidden),
improves worst-case speed (filesize <= 256 MiB) from 13 to 139 MiB/s
48M was chosen wrt RAM usage (48*4 MiB); a target read-size of
16M would have given 76 MiB/s, 32M = 117 MiB/s, and 64M = 154 MiB/s
additionally, on all platforms (not just android and/or chrome),
allow async hashing of <= 3 chunks in parallel on main-thread
when chunksize <= 48 MiB, and <= 2 at <= 96 MiB; this gives
decent speeds approaching that of webworkers (around 50%)
this is a new take on c06d928bb5
which was removed in 184af0c603
when a chrome-beta temporarily fixed the poor file-read performance
(afaict the fix was reverted and never made it to chrome stable)
as for why any of this is necessary,
the security features in android have the unfortunate side-effect
of making file-reads from web-browsers extremely expensive;
this is especially noticeable in android-chrome, where
file-hashing is painfully slow, around 9 MiB/s worst-case
this is due to a fixed-time overhead for each read operation;
reading 1 MiB takes 60 msec, while reading 16 MiB takes 112 msec
chrome (and chromium-based browsers) can OOM when:
* the OS is Windows, MacOS, or Android (but not Linux?)
* the website is hosted on a remote IP (not localhost)
* webworkers are used to read files
unfortunately this also applies to Android, which heavily relies
on webworkers to make read-speeds anywhere close to acceptable
as for android, there are diminishing returns with more than 4
webworkers (1=1x, 2=2.3x, 3=3.8x, 4=4.2x, 6=4.5x, 8=5.3x), and
limiting the number of workers to ensure at least one idle core
appears to sufficiently reduce the OOM probability
on desktop, webworkers are only necessary for hashwasm, so
limit the number of workers to 2 if crypto.subtle is available
and otherwise use the nproc-1 rule for hashwasm in workers
bug report: https://issues.chromium.org/issues/383568268
if someone accidentally starts uploading a file in the wrong folder,
it was not obvious that you can forget that upload in the unpost tab
this '(explain)' button in the upload-error hopefully explains that,
and upload immediately commences when the initial attempt is aborted
on the backend, cleanup the dupesched when an upload is
aborted, and save some cpu by adding unique entries only
