A little node.js server for testing html5 ajax file uploads.

	/*
	A little node.js server for testing html5 ajax file uploads.

	It serves up the current directory and receives uploads at /upload.

	This is for use with xhr.send(file) where the entire request body is the file.
	It just pauses one second between chunks so that client-side progress events
	get a chance to fire. On my laptop it looks like the maximum chunk size is
	around 40K, so you would still need images in the range of hundreds of kilobytes
	to really be able to test it.
