Support pipe input

This could be used to graph output of "tcpdump -w", possibly an easy way to implement network traffic filters.

This would still be a very, very nice feature. I had a look at the source, and if I was a better coder (like you are, @wardi 😀 ) it would be a matter of maybe five minutes.

I actually wrote the code for this last year. Let me see if I can find it to upload and file a pull request.

It would still be great to have speedometer support stdin measurement...

@normanr PING ; )

@eMPee584 I made some code modifications to support stdin measurement, including running external shell command's stdout measurement.

Usage: (for text plain mode)

$ cat /dev/urandom | speedometer

$ speedometer < /dev/urandom

$ curl --output - https://download.site/file.iso 2>/dev/null | speedometer

$ tcpdump -w - | speedometer

Usage: (for graphic mode)

$ speedometer -d "curl https://download.site/file.iso --output -"

$ speedometer -d "cat /dev/urandom"

$ speedometer -d "tcpdump -w -"
