Does not actually use IPFS, only IPFS gateways. #23

I was a little disappointed to see that this only loads videos from IPFS gateways, and does not use ipfs-js. With the recent popularity of peertube I was looking for IPFS equivalents, however all but moshisushi/hlsjs-ipfs-loader seem to only use the gateways.

This means there is zero p2p action happening and 100% of the bandwidth always goes to the hard coded set of gateways.

It would be great if the IPFS video players that are being developed could actually use ipfs-js to gain the P2P ability that IPFS provides, and not just use small number of free gateways.
