----------------------------------+------------------------
 Perl stream_backend_file seems to be broken in 24-fixes and head in the
 following ways:

 1. When sending the FileTransfer command, it doesn't include all requied
 parameters, causing the backend to responsd with
 "malformed_filetransfer_command"
 2. The file being requested must start with a / (this is more an ease of
 use change as opposed to a bug)
 3. The length of the file to be streamed is not parsed correctly when >
 2147483647, which results in corrupt or zero length files being written to
 disk

 This patch fixes these issues.  Patch applies cleanly to 24-fixes and head

 The file length fix was tested against files of lengths:
 1. 2012338647 (regression)
 2. 2500703244 (requires conversion to unsigned to be interpreted
 correctly)
 3. 31219659384 (test longlong)

 Thanks
 Dave
