Description

With STOU, a filename is optional. Whether provided or not, the server will return the filename used, which may be different than the optional one provided by the client.

Currently, if a filename is provided by the client, it is used in the fileinfo record. However, if no filename was provided, the placeholder <stou> is used with no update when the filename is known.

Open question: If the client and server provide a filename, and they are different, which should the fileinfo record inherit?

I would consider the server's response as ground truth, so that's what fileinfo should contain.
