Breaks video streaming

[jmeyers91]

This middleware causes videos to fail to stream in Chrome and Firefox.

Here's a minimal repo for reproducing the bug:
https://github.com/jmeyers91/koa-range-broken-video-streaming

Run node broken.js and node notBroken.js then open http://localhost:8080 and http://localhost:8081

This project has not been updated for 4 years, and it may not be updated again in the future. I suggest creating another branch for continued maintenance.

after merging this it seems some of the unit tests are failing, related to the presence of Content-Encoding: chunked header not being present, so I'm hesitant to publish this as an npm module yet.

I'm planning to read through the rfc for this, to get a deeper understanding of all the nuances

Hopefully this will be a bit enlightening and give me some confidence to make more systemic changes.
