ignacionelson d6fd5a917d Send downloads the way the web server in front of us understands
Uploads live outside the web root, so PHP authorizes every download and
then hands the file to the web server with a header naming it. Four
routes decided that for themselves and all four hard-coded nginx's
spelling. On Apache or LiteSpeed nothing acts on the header, so the
empty body PHP sent goes to the visitor: files upload fine, thumbnails
are broken images, and downloads arrive as 0 bytes, with every other
page working. Reported as #1765 from an Apache 2.4 install, and before
that as #1266, #1215, #870 and #1271.

It is also a regression from v1, which had a download_method setting --
php, apache_xsendfile, litespeed, nginx_xaccel -- defaulting to php. v1
therefore worked on any server out of the box and v2 did not, and a v1
Apache user migrating lost every download with nothing to tell them why.

So the four sites now go through one FileDelivery, and it picks:

  auto (default)  nginx when SERVER_SOFTWARE says nginx, else php
  nginx           X-Accel-Redirect, a URL path via the internal location
  xsendfile       X-Sendfile, an absolute path (Apache mod_xsendfile,
                  LiteSpeed)
  php             BinaryFileResponse

Defaulting to auto rather than nginx is the point of the change: a
default that assumes nginx leaves an Apache install exactly as broken as
it is today until somebody reads INSTALL.md. Slow beats empty.

Auto never picks xsendfile, even where the module is loaded.
mod_xsendfile also needs XSendFilePath to allow the storage directory,
which cannot be seen from here, and choosing it on the strength of the
module being present would trade a silent failure an administrator can
diagnose from the dashboard for one nobody can.

BinaryFileResponse rather than a readfile loop because it answers Range
requests. nginx does that itself on the fast path, so hand-rolling it
would have broken seeking through a video on exactly the installations
this fallback exists for. Verified end to end: 206 with the right
Content-Range through the live stack.

Two guards. Every method checks the path cannot climb out of the storage
area -- nginx resolves `..` in the URL it is handed as happily as PHP
would -- and the two methods that hand over a filesystem path resolve it
and prove it lands inside the root. Callers pass paths from rows they
just authorized, so this is a backstop; it is here because the cost of
being wrong once is handing over any file the web server can read.

The dashboard's System panel names the method, with a warning icon and a
dialog when PHP is doing the sending: what is happening, what it costs
(one worker held for the whole of each download, so a few large
simultaneous ones can occupy every worker while the processor sits
idle), why it is set that way, and the three ways out. Written to be
accurate rather than reassuring -- nothing is broken, it does not scale
-- and the notice stays even when php was chosen deliberately, because
the trade-off is the same either way. /system/settings/downloads repeats
it, which is where somebody coming from v1 goes looking for the
dropdown.

An environment variable rather than a stored setting: it describes the
server this installation runs on, not a preference, and a value in the
database travels to a different server in a restore and is wrong there.
Read only in config/projectsend.php, so config:cache cannot blank it.

The suite pins itself to nginx. Left at auto it would detect no server
at all, fall back to php, and quietly retire the coverage of the
mechanism most installations actually use.
