Network folders

• WebDAV: listed with PROPFIND, one level at a time, always through StremioK's service (no CORS rules, and certificates checked as below). Basic sign-in only.
• The service keeps nothing: each request names the folder's address in its link and carries the sign-in (and a trusted certificate) in headers, never in a link.
• Certificates: checked against the bundled list. One no known authority signed is read from a handshake with checking off (nothing sent) for the app to ask about; trusted, it's the only one the service accepts for that folder (not its name). The TV's player checks its own way (the Tizen 6 TV's takes self-made ones).
• Playing: the player gets the file's link with the user name and password in it (https://user:password@…), made as it starts. Sources, Continue Watching and Diagnostics keep the link without them.
• Otherwise as a USB drive (one index per folder), without downloads or the file hash.
