Verify that we handle serving partial video files correctly #8

If I remember correctly, there's a lot of protocol nonsense involved in doing video streaming right as an http server, and we should verify that the express handles this correctly. It's probably also worth investigating if it will actually use the linux sendfile syscall where appropriate.

I'm guessing that we won't be writing most of the streaming stuff ourselves (or at least not the core piece) I got really far into this with poor box, so this might be something for me.
