Responses from createHandler in express are not returned #74

Description

@mjmahone

I tried to implement the code sample for express in order to migrate away from express-graphql. The express-graphql version works and returns a response, but the http-graphql version does not respond.

Code:

import * as express from 'express';
import { graphqlHTTP } from 'express-graphql';
import { GraphQLObjectType, GraphQLSchema, GraphQLString } from 'graphql';
import { createHandler } from 'graphql-http/lib/use/express';

const schema = new GraphQLSchema({
  query: new GraphQLObjectType({
    name: "Query", 
    fields: {hello: {type: GraphQLString, resolve: () => "hello"}}
  })
});
const app = express();

// express-graphql implementation
app.use('/graphql', graphqlHTTP({ schema: schema }));

// graphql-http express implementation
app.all('/graphql2', createHandler({ schema }));
app.listen(4000);

The I use curl:

curl http://localhost:4000/graphql --data-urlencode "query=query Q { hello }"
{"data":{"hello":"hello"}}

curl http://localhost:4000/graphql2 --data-urlencode "query=query Q { hello }"

Expected Behaviour
A response of {"data":{"hello":"hello"}} for both /graphql and /graphql2.

Actual Behaviour
Only /graphql (the express-graphql implementation) returns any response.
