test-lfs: add tests around corrupted lfs objects These are mostly tests against file:// based remote stores, because that's what we have the most control over. The test uploading a corrupt blob to lfs-test-server demonstrates an overly broad exception handler in the retry loop. A corrupt blob is actually transferred in a download, but eventually caught when it is accessed (only after it leaves the corrupt file in a couple places locally). I don't think we want to trust random 3rd party implementations, and this would be a problem if there were a `debuglfsdownload` command that simply cached the files. And given the cryptic errors, we should probably validate the file hash locally before uploading, and also after downloading.

The censor system allows retroactively removing content from
files. Actually censoring a node requires using the censor extension,
but the functionality for handling censored nodes is partially in core.
Censored nodes in a filelog have the flag ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` set,
and the contents of the censored node are replaced with a censor
tombstone. For historical reasons, the tombstone is packed in the
filelog metadata field ``censored``. This allows censored nodes to be
(mostly) safely transmitted through old formats like changegroup
versions 1 and 2. When using changegroup formats older than 3, the
receiver is required to re-add the ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` flag when
storing the revision. This depends on the ``censored`` metadata key
never being used for anything other than censoring revisions, which is
true as of January 2017. Note that the revlog flag is the
authoritative marker of a censored node: the tombstone should only be
consulted when looking for a reason a node was censored or when revlog
flags are unavailable as mentioned above.
The tombstone data is a free-form string. It's expected that users of
censor will want to record the reason for censoring a node in the
tombstone. Censored nodes must be able to fit in the size of the
content being censored.
