Issue:
nngcat should accept --data or --file over stdin
Note that by filing an issue, you agree that you have read and agreed to
our contribution guidelines.

## NNG & Platform details.

nng 1.1.1 (via FreeBSD ports)

## Expected Behavior

```
ping localhost | nngcat --pub --listen=tcp://127.0.0.1:4567 -i 1 -v --file -
```

## Actual Behavior

```
Protocol requires either --file or --data.
```

it seems nngcat doesn't accept piped stdin, nor via `--file -` or `--data -` or the same without `-`.

## Steps to Reproduce

See above, run `nngcat --sub --dial=tcp://127.0.0.1:4567 --raw` in another term.

Pull request:
fixes #1007 nngcat should accept data from stdin
Allows passing a filename of `-` to the `--file` option in order to read from
stdin. Also removes the requirement for the file to be seekable - this allows
nngcat to be used as part of a shell pipeline, or with other non-seekable files
