_ 0cb24695d0 🚧 wip: idea for tunneling TCP over HTTP
There's a lot of missing pieces, but the big picture is like this:

- Use 2 completely separate HTTP streams, and try to keep them alive as long
as possible, each in basically half-duplex mode
- Each stream has a long-running PUT and GET, sort of like station307
- Each end has to be terminated by a native app that either connects to a local
TCP server, or acts as a local TCP server
- No clue how it would work for multiple connections on the same port. Poorly,
I guess?
- It's probably gonna run like garbage because we're splitting TCP into
2 TCP streams, and although backpressure might work, the ACKs will be less
efficient. And the congestion control might get confused

My only goal is to tunnel Tracy over it, so that I can have that remotely.
