/// \file Implements MappedFileRegionArena.
///
/// A bump pointer allocator, backed by a memory-mapped file.
///
/// The effect we want is:
///
/// Step 1. If it doesn't exist, create the file with an initial size.
/// Step 2. Reserve virtual memory large enough for the max file size.
/// Step 3. Map the file into memory in the reserved region.
/// Step 4. Increase the file size and update the mapping when necessary.
///
/// However, updating the mapping is challenging when it needs to work portably,
/// and across multiple processes without locking for every read. Our current
/// implementation handles the steps above in following ways:
///
/// Step 1. Use \ref sys::fs::resize_file_sparse to grow the file to its max
///         size (typically several GB). If the file system doesn't support
///         sparse file, this may return a fully allocated file.
/// Step 2. Call \ref sys::fs::mapped_file_region to map the entire file.
/// Step 3. [Automatic as part of step 2.]
/// Step 4. If supported, use \c fallocate or similiar APIs to ensure the file
///         system storage for the sparse file so we won't end up with partial
///         file if the disk is out of space.
///
/// Additionally, we attempt to resize the file to its actual data size when
/// closing the mapping, if this is the only concurrent instance. This is done
/// using file locks. Shrinking the file mitigates problems with having large
/// files: on filesystems without sparse files it avoids unnecessary space use;
/// it also avoids allocating the full size if another process copies the file,
/// which typically loses sparseness. These mitigations only work while the file
/// is not in use.
///
/// The capacity and the header offset is determined by the first user of the
/// MappedFileRegionArena instance and any future mismatched value from the
/// original will result in error on creation.
///
/// To support resizing, we use two separate file locks:
/// 1. We use a shared reader lock on a ".shared" file until destruction.
/// 2. We use a lock on the main file during initialization - shared to check
///    the status, upgraded to exclusive to resize/initialize the file.
///
/// Then during destruction we attempt to get exclusive access on (1), which
/// requires no concurrent readers. If so, we shrink the file. Using two
/// separate locks simplifies the implementation and enables it to work on
/// platforms (e.g. Windows) where a shared/reader lock prevents writing.
