upload efficiency requires multi-part file upload #293

There is the upload limit 5 Tb as described in the Readme. But in my opinion the current implementation is not optimal for large files. We process the request from the browser, copy the data into the local file and then upload the file into S3 in the one request. I think it won't work good for a too big files. I suggest to make some upload process improvements.

To be honest I have my doubts that it is possible to upload 5Tb through a browser...

Anyway my suggestion should much improve the performance If multiple clients are simultaneously upload relatively large files(hundreds of megabytes)
