If flags includes COPY_FILE_RANGE_FILESIZE then the length
copied is the length of the file. off_in and off_out are
ignored. len must be 0 or the file size.

This implementation saves a call to stat() in the common case
of copying files. It does not fix any race conditions, but that
is possible in the future with this interface.

EAGAIN: If COPY_FILE_RANGE_FILESIZE was passed and len is not 0
or the file size.
