This runs the file transformer on a file before returning the result.
This is used for templating support.

Our input_stream::consume() mechanism allows feeding data from an input
stream into a consumer, piece by piece, until the consumer doesn't want
any more. It currently assumed the input can block (when reading from disk),
but the consumption is assumed to be immediate. This patch adds support for
blocking in the consumption function: The consumer now returns a future
which it promises to fulfill after consuming the given buffer.
This patch goes further by somewhat simplifying (?) the interface of the
consumer. Instead of receiving a mysterious "done" lambda the consumer
is supposed to call when done (doesn't want any more input), the consumer
now returns a future<optional<temporary_buffer<char>>, which means:
1. The future is fulfilled when the consumer is done with this buffer
and either wants more - or wants to stop.
2. If the consumer wants to stop, it returns the *remaining* part of the
buffer it didn't want to process (this will be pushed back into the
input stream).
3. If the consumer is not done, and wants to consume more, it returns an
unset optional.

File handlers support reading local file and return it as the result
for the http request.
There are two kind of handler, a file handler will return a specific
file when called. A directory handler expect to find a path parameter
called 'path' and would concatinate this parameter to the direcoty path.
