2GB file upload fail.

[takipone]

Currently gosync fails if upload file size is more than 2GB.
I think the cause is that ioutil.ReadFile is called in sync.go : line 173.

Here is my results of execution.

$ gosync sync isos s3://s3sync-test/test1
Syncing isos with s3://s3sync-test/test1

Looks like readfile needs to be switched to multiple reads.

That makes more sense - ReadFile is trying to create a 15GB slice, and can't (even if your machine is 32 bytes).

Your solution is to manually call Read() multiple times, and process the file bit-by-bit. (Note that if you run read_file while the file is still being downloaded, it will /not/ wait to finish until the whole file is downloaded. Ordinary files can't be used as FIFOs.)

Perhaps the size limitations on slices should be documented in the spec? (Or better, removed? It does feel somewhat artificial.)
