// Removes a given file asynchronously. This is a performance hack,
// so remove this when operating systems are improved.
//
// On Linux (and probably on other Unix-like systems), unlink(2) is a
// noticeably slow system call. As of 2016, unlink takes 250
// milliseconds to remove a 1 GB file on ext4 filesystem on my machine.
//
// To create a new result file, we first remove existing file. So, if
// you repeatedly link a 1 GB program in a regular compile-link-debug
// cycle, every cycle wastes 250 milliseconds only to remove a file.
// Since LLD can link a 1 GB binary in about 5 seconds, that waste
// actually counts.
//
// This function spawns a background thread to remove the file.
// The calling thread returns almost immediately.

// Removing a file is async on windows.

// to create path as a new file.
// Instead we open the file and unlink it on this thread. The unlink is fast
// since the open fd guarantees that it is not removing the last reference.

// Determining whether a file is writable or not is amazingly hard,
// and after all the only reliable way of doing that is to actually
// create a file. But we don't want to do that in this function
// because LLD shouldn't update any file if it will end in a failure.
// We also don't want to reimplement heuristics to determine if a
// file is writable. So we'll let FileOutputBuffer do the work.
//
// FileOutputBuffer doesn't touch a desitnation file until commit()
// is called. We use that class without calling commit() to predict
// if the given file is writable.
