After using httpsnoop to preserve interfaces, the compress response
writer now implemented ReaderFrom. ReaderFrom is used by net/http to
use sendfile when serving *os.Files. This breaks compression because
it serves directly to the underlying response writer, skipping the
compressor. Fix by implementing ReadFrom on our resposne writer to
copy to our compressor.

Fixes #194.

Seems, after reading through the httpsnoop README, that using it is not as straightforward as advertised ;) Thank you for the quick turn-around time!
