Trying to separate:
1. Stuff for handling the swarm of nodes and generic table data replication
2. Stuff for the object store core application: metadata tables and block management
3. Stuff for the S3 API
So the HTTP client future of Hyper is not Sync, thus the stream
that read blocks wasn't either. However Hyper's default Body type
requires a stream to be Sync for wrap_stream. Solution: reimplement
a custom HTTP body type.
