Magnet metadata is now fetched over the network via bb901ee.

Metadata more than 16KB is not supported yet, it's pretty basic.

fix bug where client mangles tracker port
e83328b 
The client was converting the binary (compact) response to a utf8
string which would modify the data in some cases. Keeping it as a
buffer the whole time solves the issue.

Fixes webtorrent#19.
