Completely untested, and not a direct answer to "file resuming", but you
asked for pointers, so maybe...

If you want a response header from a fastcgi process not to be
delivered to the client, see fastcgi_hide_header, for example at
http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_fastcgi_module.html#fastcgi_hide_header

If you want a request header not to be sent to a fastcgi process, set
the matching parameter yourself to empty:

  fastcgi_param HTTP_RANGE "";

Good luck with it,
