A lambda function for writing the Http_parser::files data to file storage. MIME types are checked with magic numbers in the data to confirm a match before writing. Non-matches are skipped.

Using a lambda makes it convenient to use a thread for this task.

The write_files lambda function is called in its own thread to permit the HTTP transaction to conclude (by sending the response) as early as possible.
