Comment (by dawuud):

 new working code here -> https://github.com/david415/tahoe-lafs/tree/1449
 .dropupload-redundant-uploads.2

 - perform uploads serially (let's optimize later!)

 - push and pop the deque asynchronously (is that the correct term?) This
 design is highly influenced by Foolscap's `eventually`...
