Support for wig and BigWig could be useful.

We do have a specific use case for a fast bigwig reader. Oncotator needs to support annotation with wig and bigwig files. We're currently making use of an existing library, but it has some compatibility issues with OSX. A fast implementation in gamgee could be very useful to us.
