Magnet links not working

[rgaudin]

Mirrorbrain generated magnets are incorrect.

According to the spec, here are the issues:

• encoding:
  • & strings should be &
  • as= should be urlencoded
  • tr= should be urlencoded
• Webseed should be declared with ws=. as= is a fallback, not a webseed.
• Ideally we should have one ws= for each mirror.
• Missing xs=. This should be a link to the torrent file. Without it the webseed is useless as the magnet doesn't contain the torrent metadata and would thus wait forever to retrieve the metadata from a peer which has it (might happen if another BT user is seeding using a .torrent file… but unlikely). #43 would help of course.

This is upstream ; probably invalidated by #239
