Simple and transparent support for compressed files.

This library provides two main features:

• sniffs out compression formats from input files and return a Read trait object ready for consumption.
• Create a Writer initialized with compression ready for writing.

The goal is to lower the barrier to open and use a file, especially in bioinformatics workflows.
