[Seaside] Making a download page

[Avi Shefi]

Serving them directly from a webserver can be performed in two ways:
1) completely detached from Seaside, where the links are simply external.
2) referenced by FileLibrary, but served through the webserver. This can be
done using the new X-Sendfile functionality (using the base url as
mentioned).
