Description

* Need to install the WebTorrent Tracker - see https://github.com/internetarchive/dweb-transport/issues/22
* Need to fix CORS on download files, so that we can use archive.org/download/xx/yy to get files. This would benefit other apps - see https://github.com/internetarchive/dweb-gateway/issues/33

When both the above are fixed we need to rewrite Torrent files, at ingestion and either on the fly, or via a batch process. See https://github.com/internetarchive/dweb-gateway/issues/34 and/or https://github.com/internetarchive/dweb-transports/issues/5
