debuginfod: PR27277 - Describe retrieved files when verbosensanci/verbose-headers
There appear to exist use cases that intend to simply check for the
existence of content in a debuginfod server, without actually
downloading it. In HTTP land, the HEAD operation is the natural
expression of this.
Instead of implementing a HEAD/describe option, allow users, with enough
verbosity, to print the HTTP response headers upon retrieving a file.
E.g output:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Length: 2428240
Cache-Control: public
Last-Modified: Sat, 15 May 2021 20:49:51 GMT
X-FILE: "file name"
X-FILE-SIZE: "byte length of file"
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
