DenoHttpPlatform

Deno implementation of the Effect HTTP platform service.

File responses use Deno.FsFile.readable directly so full-file responses retain Deno's resource-backed fast path. Deno closes the file after the body is sent, but server adapters must cancel a raw body when they do not send it, including when handling HEAD requests.

The provided layer uses strong ETags, unlike the portable HttpPlatform layer, which uses weak ETags.
