[PATCH v3 0/4] erofs-utils: implement the FULLDATA rebuild mode

Currently, erofs-utils supports backing blobs for multi-image setups.  This
implements the FULLDATA import which allows for the merging of multiple
source images into a single self-contained erofs image.

To optimize the rebuild process, erofs_io_xcopy() is used to leverage the
copy_file_range(2) if available. This bypasses userspace buffering and
enables kernel side data transfers.
 
Verification: Built same image with default rebuild and rebuild with
FULLDATA. Then ran F-i-f/tdiff comparing the two.

changes in v3:
- adhere to uniaddress semantics.
- take advantage of existing infrastructure which allows us to drop a
  significant amount of complexity + code.

changes in v2:
- reworked erofs_rebuild_load_trees_full into
  erofs_mkfs_rebuild_load_trees.
- removed --merge option (use --clean=data instead).
- updated man.
