Add the ability to download files via BitTorrent
The Client has learned a new option, --download-method, too specify
whether we're downloading directly or via BitTorrent.
This implementation has a few remaining issues, the biggest one is
that seeding isn't implemented at all (when the download stops,
Thandy stops sharing). Failure to download due to no available
peers also doesn't work.
