This PR adds an RPC call the enables direct retrieval of the raw chunk contents from a reference. The use case that prompted the change was the desire tocircumvent the lookup algorithm of feeds to access only a particular update if it exists, without having to wait for the additional lookups the algorithms execute to finish (and fail if there are no newer ones).

This is an RPC superset of what the HTTP bzz-feed-raw: implementation provides. @zelig did not initially approve of providing IPC interface to lowlevel operations in Swarm. I disagree on this. Since I believe it should warrant further discussion, I've opted to keep the PR open.
