+/// Punch holes in a file.

+/// `fspacectl` instructs the file system to deallocate a portion of a file.
+/// After a successful operation, this region of the file will return all zeroes
+/// if read.  If the file system supports deallocation, then it may free the
+/// underlying storage, too.
+///
+/// # Arguments
+///
+/// - `fd`      -   File to operate on
+/// - `range.0` -   File offset at which to begin deallocation
+/// - `range.1` -   Length of the region to deallocate
+///
+/// # Returns
+///
+/// The operation may deallocate less than the entire requested region.  On
+/// success, it returns the region that still remains to be deallocated.  The
+/// caller should loop until the returned region is empty.
+///
+/// # Example
+///
+// no_run because it fails to link until FreeBSD 14.0
+/// ```no_run
+/// # use std::io::Write;
+/// # use std::os::unix::fs::FileExt;
+/// # use std::os::unix::io::AsRawFd;
+/// # use nix::fcntl::*;
+/// # use tempfile::tempfile;
