bug#64317: [Cuirass] Download products can disappear, leading to HTTP 500
The /download endpoint refers directly to store items. However, they can be GC’d in the meantime, in which case the HTTP handler fails gracelessly (HTTP 500 or so) as shown here: --8<---cut here---start->8--- 2023-06-27 16:02:24 GET /download/718 2023-06-27 16:02:24 Uncaught exception in task: 2023-06-27 16:02:24 In fibers.scm: 2023-06-27 16:02:24 172:8 1 (_) 2023-06-27 16:02:24 In ice-9/boot-9.scm: 2023-06-27 16:02:24 1685:16 0 (raise-exception _ #:continuable? _) 2023-06-27 16:02:24 ice-9/boot-9.scm:1685:16: In procedure raise-exception: 2023-06-27 16:02:24 In procedure open-file: No such file or directory: "/gnu/store/bnsh1yk4l913af8swqi3x7xp1xsa8gq7-guix-binary.tar.xz" --8<---cut here---end--->8--- The solution IMO is to (1) register GC roots for these, (2) periodically remove old GC roots, and (3) return 404 when the file has vanished.

Fixed with these Cuirass commits: 9e897d8 'create-build-outputs' registers a GC root on build products. 103a6ec http: Gracefully handle missing files in "/download". 5e3e49c http: "/download" returns 404 rather than 500 for "not found".
