  Ignoring the elephant in the room which is that this diff forces everything through `mountUrl`, that's the expected behavior with a plain HTTP URL as the size isn't known until the file is downloaded. So `stat` reports a size of `1` until the file is actually opened.
  This is unavoidable, otherwise every `ls` would trigger a download of all files. If handling this better is important, `HTTPProtocol::stat` could use a `HEAD` request to get the `Content-Length`, but that doesn't work in all cases either.
