 *
 *  This function supports following features:
 *
 *  1. Do not break UTF-8 character. (RFC2231/5987 Standards and considering browsers)
 *  2. Remove special character when include characters that cannot used by OS.
 *  3. Add Cache-Control and Expires header when you want to enable cache.
 *  4. Fix the download error when use cache and IE <= 8.
 *  5. Resumable download. (Auto detect Range header and auto generate Accept-Ranges header)
 *  6. Fix the memory leak when download large file.
 *  7. Support speed limitation
 *
 *  How to   :  send_attachment('filename that provide to client', 'file path or remote url', [period of cache], [speed limit]);
 *
 *             below, download 'foo.jpg' file from server to client named '사진.jpg'.
 *             send_attachment('사진.jpg', '/srv/www/files/uploads/foo.jpg');
 *
 *             below, download 'bar.mp3' file from server with 24-hour caching and 300KB/s limit.
 *             send_attachment('bar.mp3', '/srv/www/files/uploads/bar.mp3', 60 * 60 * 24, 300);
 *
 *  Return   :  true when successfully sent else false.
 *
 *  Caution  :  1. please execute 'exit' when end the transfer. (file can be broken)
 *              2. don't ensure that php version is very low(< 5.1) or not UTF-8 environment.
 *              3. speed limitation is very dangerous when you using FastCGI/FPM.
 *                 recommend to use web server's speed limitation.
 *              4. some android versions does not support UTF-8 encoding.
