//Upstream options:

//are mutually exclusive.
//-c, --collapse-range
// Removes a byte range from a file, without leaving a hole. The byte range
// to be collapsed starts at offset and continues for length bytes.
// At the completion of the operation, the contents of the file starting
// at the location offset+length will be appended at the location offset,
// and the file will be length bytes smaller. The option --keep-size may
// not be specified for the collapse-range operation.
//-d, --dig-holes
// Detect and dig holes. This makes the file sparse in-place, without using
// extra disk space. The minimum size of the hole depends on filesystem I/O
// block size (usually 4096 bytes). Also,
//-l, --length length
// Specifies the length of the range, in bytes.
//-n, --keep-size
// Do not modify the apparent length of the file. This may effectively
// allocate blocks past EOF, which can be removed with a truncate.
//-o, --offset offset
// Specifies the beginning offset of the range, in bytes.
//-p, --punch-hole
// Deallocates space (i.e., creates a hole) in the byte range starting
// at offset and continuing for length bytes. Within the specified range,
// partial filesystem blocks are zeroed, and whole
// filesystem blocks are removed from the file. After a successful call,
// subsequent reads from this range will return zeroes. This option may not
// be specified at the same time as the
// --zero-range option. Also, when using this option, --keep-size is implied.
//-z, --zero-range
// Zeroes space in the byte range starting at offset and continuing for
// length bytes. Within the specified range, blocks are preallocated for
// the regions that span the holes in the file. After
// a successful call, subsequent reads from this range will return zeroes.
// Zeroing is done within the filesystem preferably by converting the range
// into unwritten extents. This approach means that the specified range
// will not be physically zeroed out on the device (except for partial
// blocks at the either end of the range), and I/O is (otherwise) required
// only to update metadata.
// Option --keep-size can be specified to prevent file length modification.
