Basic file-sending utility for koa. It does the following:

- Check if a file exists

- Set content-length, content-type, and last-modified headers

- 304 based on last-modified

- Handle HEAD requests

It does not:

- Check for malicious paths or hidden files

- Support directory indexes

- Cache control

- OPTIONS method

## API

### sendfile(context, filename)

You must pass the koa context. `filename` is the filename of the file.

sendfile returns a promise that resolves to the `fs.stat()` result of the filename. If sendfile() resolves, that doesn't mean that a response is set - the filename could be a directory. Instead, check `if (context.status)`.

```js

const sendfile = require('koa-sendfile')

app.use(async function (ctx, next) {

  const stats = await sendfile(ctx, '/Users/jong/.bash_profile')

  if (!ctx.status) ctx.throw(404)

})

```
