Adds support for simulating redirects for UnixFS directories.

We're somewhat in uncharted water here because window.fetch does this transparently unless you specify a redirect option, none of which actually allow you to manually follow a redirect.

The states we can be in are:

  1. URL: ipfs://QmFoo/dir/
  • Happy path
  • 200 response
  • response.redirected = false
  • response.url = 'ipfs://QmFoo/dir'

2: URL: ipfs://QmFoo/dir, redirect: 'follow'

  • The default value
  • Simulates automatically following a redirect
  • 200 response
  • response.redirected = true
  • response.url = 'ipfs://QmFoo/dir/'

3: URL: ipfs://QmFoo/dir, redirect: 'error'

  • Throw an error if a redirect would take place
  • Throws TypeError('Failed to Fetch') same as window.fetch

4: URL: ipfs://QmFoo/dir, redirect: 'manual'

  • Allows a caller to take action on the redirect
  • 301 response
  • response.redirected = false
  • response.url = 'ipfs://QmFoo/dir
  • response.headers.get('location') = 'ipfs://QmFoo/dir/'

Number 4 is the furthest from the fetch spec but to follow the spec would make it impossible to actually follow a redirect.

Refs: ipfs/service-worker-gateway#62

Change checklist

  • I have performed a self-review of my own code
  • I have made corresponding changes to the documentation if necessary (this includes comments as well)
  • I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my feature works

Adds support for simulating redirects for UnixFS directories.

We're somewhat in uncharted water here because window.fetch does this
transparently unless you specify a `redirect` option, none of which
actually allow you to follow a redirect.

The states we can be in are:

1. URL: `ipfs://QmFoo/dir/`
  - Happy path
  - 200 response
  - `response.redirected = false`
  - `response.url = 'ipfs://QmFoo/dir'`

2: URL: `ipfs://QmFoo/dir`, `redirect: 'follow'`
  - The default value
  - Simulates automatically following a redirect
  - 200 response
  - `response.redirected = true`
  - `response.url = 'ipfs://QmFoo/dir/'`

3: URL: `ipfs://QmFoo/dir`, `redirect: 'error'`
  - Return an error if a redirect would take place
  - Throws `TypeError('Failed to Fetch')` same as `window.fetch`

4: URL: `ipfs://QmFoo/dir`, `redirect: 'manual'`
  - Allows a caller to take action on the redirect
  - 301 response
  - `response.redirected = false`
  - `response.url = 'ipfs://QmFoo/dir`
  - `response.headers.get('location') = 'ipfs://QmFoo/dir/'`

Number 4 is the furthest from [the fetch spec](https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-request-redirect-mode)
but to follow the spec would make it impossible to actually follow a
redirect.

Thank you for wiring this up!

Option 4 sounds like a sensible compromise to implement fix for ipfs/service-worker-gateway#62, and will make things even easier in future when we accept HTTP URLs as-is.

The { redirect: 'manual' } is a very niche feature, and the fact we don't have opaque response (or any other divergence from regular fetch) should not have negative impact real world users.

The "spirit" of https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#atomic-http-redirect-handling is to not leak cross-origin information not otherwise available, and we don't introduce any new info in location header or body (anyone can grab CID from URL and learn it is a directory themselves).

Seems like a reasonable approach. I do wonder if modifying the response type with Object.defineProperty will mess with caching the response at all

This ensures fix introduced in
ipfs/helia-verified-fetch#5
is returned to the browser, instead of following it and returning final
bytes.
