Flash EEPROM/HDD not fully functional for 12 years #2603

https://github.com/wiremod/wire/blob/ec5cddcacb6f71b41e3d8ae9baea89b7ba21a154/lua/wire/stools/hdd.lua#L75-L247 According to the last relevant update, this was supposed to be finalized in "the next update". Would appreciate some eyes on this as I like its functionality.

Would also like to consider, while we're here, having an ability for the server to request downloading a specific drive from the client. Or maybe don't request, just do. Not like anyone stores anything valuable on these anyway, probably.

Okay yeah I should've figured this would be my problem to solve, but I will make HDDs (which are mysteriously named to Flash EEPROMs because...?) great as they were intended to be.

Would anyone be against changing the name back? Besides the minutia of users who might use this in its current form.

Anything that requires sending files between server and client is going to be a challenge unless you add in the netstream lib advdupe2/starfall/pac3 uses.

This entity is dead because its netcode is currently awful.

I already brought up reworking the E2 internals to use netstream. I mean we were gonna do that ages ago with clientside http for e2's http functions, this should be done at some point.

Need to re-investigate this. Should be easy now with netstream.
