/** Brain dead HTTP server, solely for testing. I could use an external
  * package, but doing it this way reduces external dependencies, since I'm
  * only using a lightweight HTTP server in ScalaTest tests.
  *
  * Restrictions:
  * - Only handles text/plain, because that's all the tests need.
  * - Doesn't scale (and doesn't really need to).
  * - Only sends 200 (OK) and 404 (Not Found).
  * - Doesn't bother with client-friendly headers like "Last-Modified".
  * - EXTREMELY minimalist.

I needed a really lightweight, simple HTTP server for use in some ScalaTest tests. There are lightweight servers already out there (e.g., http4s), but I don't need a fully fleshed out HTTP server, and I don't want to haul in a whole host of dependencies just to run a few tests.

This is a quick-and-dirty, pure Socket-based HTTP server suitable for my testing needs.
