Send Accept-Ranges-header for file-requests

Now that the range-support is actually working, we can send out
the Accept-Ranges-header so that clients know they can send
range-requests to the server.

This can be seen empirically when watching a video and skipping around
into unbuffered space. Previously, it would not be possible and the
time-selector would flip back to the furthest point the previous
buffering had progressed. Now it is working flawlessly.
