This CL is the second step (of two; part1 is CL/56771) for adding sparse file support to the Writer. There are no new identifiers exported in this CL, but this does make use of Header.SparseHoles added in part1. If the Typeflag is set to TypeGNUSparse or len(SparseHoles) > 0, then the Writer will emit an sparse file, where the holes must be written by the user as zeros. If TypeGNUSparse is set, then the output file must use the GNU format. Otherwise, it must use the PAX format (with GNU-defined PAX keys). A future CL may export Reader.Discard and Writer.FillZeros, but those methods are currently unexported, and only used by the tests for efficiency reasons. Calling Discard or FillZeros on a hole 10GiB in size does take time, even if it is essentially a memcopy.
