http: handle push of bundles > 2 GB again (issue3017)

It was very elegant that httpsendfile implemented __len__ like a string. It was
however also dangerous because that protocol can't handle sizes bigger than 2 GB.
Mercurial tried to work around that, but it turned out to be too easy to
introduce new errors in this area.

With this change __len__ is no longer implemented at all and the code will work
the same way for short and long posts.

#!/usr/bin/env python

import errno, os, sys

for f in sys.argv[1:]:
    try:
        print f, '->', os.readlink(f)
    except OSError, err:
        if err.errno != errno.EINVAL:
            raise
        print f, 'not a symlink'

sys.exit(0)
