Multihack's custom streaming wire protocol.

Designed for sending many large files in random chunk sizes, but also lots of tiny edits.

Needs to be paired with something like `stream-throttle` or it will overload a connection.

## protocol

### `request project`

```

<00000000>`

    8b           32b           xb         32b          xb

```

### `provide file`

```

<10000000>`

    8b          32b            xb        32b           xb

```

### `change file`
