httppostargs=true for Kallithea

Hello. I would really like to use Kallithea, but there's a deal breaker:
Kallithea does not support httppostargs=true, an almost undocumented
setting that switches Mercurial to sending heads and largefile hashes as
POST requests instead of in headers. I've looked at the source code, and it
seems Kallithea implements it's own version of hgweb. How hard would it be
to add support for httppostargs? I'm willing to put in the work if I
receive some guidance. The extent of my Python experience is writing
Mercurial hooks and simple Discord bots.

httppostargs:
