This breaks some tests, they'll need to be fixed. |

Let's hold off on this one for a bit to get us more time to consider the consequences for Hackage clients out there... |

Indeed, we're blocked on at least changes to the hackage-security backends, and perhaps other tools as well. |

Resolves #659
The approach here is different than in that ticket. We just check if there is a "?real=true" at the end of the .tar.gz url. If there isn't, we bump the download count and redirect to a url that does have the path. If there is, then we just return the .tar.gz.
That way the cdn can cache the real url, and everything works as is.
