Ref T11357. In D17611, I added file.search, which includes a "dataURI". Partly, this is building toward resolving T8348.
However, in some cases you can't GET this URI because of a security measure:
- You have not configured security.alternate-file-domain.
- The file isn't web-viewable.
- (The request isn't an LFS request.)
The goal of this security mechanism is just to protect against session hijacking, so it's also safe to disable it if the viewer didn't present any credentials (since that means there's nothing to hijack). Add that exception, and reorganize the code a little bit.
