File Download Servlet

This Java servlet allows downloading of files from the server. It handles GET requests to download files. It sets the response headers and content type appropriately based on the file type. It then reads the file from disk in chunks and writes it to the response output stream. Any exceptions are caught and logged. If the requested file is not found, it returns a HTML error message in the response.
