Don't look at these ;-), the details of the store_client type is only
of interest to the one implementing the storeClient*() family of
functions. These fields may not be accessed anywhere else.

This is also an area currently being rewritten. You may find a
slightly different picture if you look in Squid-HEAD.

The copy_* and seen_offset variables reflect the current
storeClientCopy() call while Squid is waiting for data to arrive in
the object.

swapin_sio is a lower level filehandle used to access the on-disk
storage. See the programmers guide for a description of a "SIO" and
it's uses.

node is an internal link field used to keep track of the current
store clients I think (haven't looked at the acutal source).
