this will let us return metadata for a transfer without having to wait
for the entire transfer to complete. more importantly for current uses
though is that we could now send retries to the effective url directly
instead of retreading the entire redirect path. this improves latency,
and in such cases where redirects change while we're downloading it'll
also improve correctness (previously we'd silently download bad data).
