Add option to make a file library send an X-Sendfile header instead of the the response body.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

File libraries support support writing their content to disk using 
WAFileLibrary >> #deployFiles. It would be nice if we had an option on file 
library or file handler that instead of sending the content would send 
X-Sendfile header to that or a configurable location.

Attached is an implementation of this using WAFileHandler configuration.
Still needs to provide absolute paths for the X-Sendfile (retrieving absolute 
path seems to be platform specific).
