I'm still reviewing this (and probably will be for a while). I have a
high-level observation at this stage, though. Several error paths in
this code (and the previous code, too) would be a whole lot simpler if
LAUNCH and CANCEL were turned into real protocol messages, and receive
file was terminated with ACK. This would also simplify review.
We can't change the protocol because it's baked into other appliances
that we've shipped and people could use the wrong appliance and
library version combination. (At the moment this does work).
