The web server's `get-file` route now supports HTTP Range requests and file streaming, enabling better loading and playback of large media files.
!! Features
* HTTP Range header: Enables partial content delivery with `206 Partial Content` responses, which is used when the user drags the progress bar in video/audio playback
* Streaming file delivery: Browsers can now properly seek and stream video files from the `/files/` directory. Files are read using Node.js streams for better performance and memory efficiency.
* Resumable downloads: To save interrupted downloads
