GHC 8 support, provide explict encode/decode version.

[winterland1989]

Thanks for making this library! I'd like to ask for a base version bump to support GHC 8, and add explict encode/decode version functions:

putToStream :: OutputStream ByteString -> Maybe Put -> IO () 
getFromStream :: InputStream ByteString -> Get a -> IO (Maybe a) 

Will you accept a PR?

Hi, yes I will accept a PR regarding this.

I'm traveling ATM but will look at it when I get back home.

Sorry, but later i decide binary/lazy bytestrings combination really not work well with io-streams(or any other streamming libraries), the problem is that a streamming library will stream chunks of strict bytestrings, if we use binary to do encode/decode, we have to go through strict/lazy conversion in and out, so instead i write cereal-streams.
