peer: introduce a limitedarguments attributes When set to True, it signal that the peer cannot receive too larges arguments and that algorithm must adapt. This should only be True for http peer that does not support argument passed as "post". This will be useful to unlock better discovery performance in the next changesets. I am using a dedicated argument because this is not really a usual "capabilities" things. An alternative approach would be to adds a "large-arguments" to all peer, but the http peers. That seemed a bit too hacky to me.

This directory is meant to cache artifacts useful for tests (such as bundle).

Those artifacts need to be cached because they are slow to regenerate on each
test but too large to be tracked within the repository. They are not expected
to change between each run and can be cached.

The `./scripts/` contains code to generate the artifact while the `cache`
directory contains resulting artifact.
