Create HTTP File Server #30

Similar to the Python SimpleHTTPServer. Basically, you run it on the command line and it serves the current directory that you are in.

There are a couple of things that go along with this. The first is the notion of system-wide installs for 3rd party tools. This could be similar to NPM or Gem. I need to figure this out because this tool should NOT be part of the Silo standard library.

Second, it forces me to figure out the HTTP pipeline for the Silo core library.

Also create http-snoop which can be useful for debugging.

The point of this issue is actually not so much the actual HTTP file server itself. Rather it is about dealing with packages, system-wide installs. A better name for this issue could be alternative for "Gem" / "Maven".
