net/http: let Transport request body writes use sendfile
net.TCPConn has the ability to send data out using system calls such as
sendfile when the source data comes from an *os.File. However, the way
that I/O has been laid out in the transport means that the File is
actually wrapped behind two outer io.Readers, and as such the TCP stack
cannot properly type-assert the reader, ensuring that it falls back to
genericReadFrom.
This commit does the following:
* Removes transferBodyReader and moves its functionality to a new
doBodyCopy helper. This is not an io.Reader implementation, but no
functionality is lost this way, and it allows us to unwrap one layer
from the body.
* The second layer of the body is unwrapped if the original reader
was wrapped with ioutil.NopCloser, which is what NewRequest wraps the
body in if it's not a ReadCloser on its own. The unwrap operation
passes through the existing body if there's no nopCloser.
Note that this depends on change https://golang.org/cl/163737 to
properly function, as the lack of ReaderFrom implementation otherwise
means that this functionality is essentially walled off.
Updates #30377.
