backend/local: Avoid polluting page cache when uploading local files to remote backends
This patch makes rclone keep linux page cache usage under control when uploading local files to remote backends. When opening a file it issues FADV_SEQUENTIAL to configure read ahead strategy. While reading the file it issues FADV_DONTNEED every 128kB to free page cache from already consumed pages. ``` fadvise64(5, 0, 0, POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL) = 0 read(5, "\324\375\251\376\213\361\240\224>\t5E\301\331X\274^\203oA\353\303.2'\206z\177N\27fB"..., 32768) = 32768 read(5, "\361\311\vW!\354_\317hf\276t\307\30L\351\272T\342C\243\370\240\213\355\210\v\221\201\177[\333"..., 32768) = 32768 read(5, ":\371\337Gn\355C\322\334 \253f\373\277\301;\215\n\240\347\305\6N\257\313\4\365\276ANq!"..., 32768) = 32768 read(5, "\312\243\360P\263\242\267H\304\240Y\310\367sT\321\256\6[b\310\224\361\344$Ms\234\5\314\306i"..., 32768) = 32768 fadvise64(5, 0, 131072, POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) = 0 read(5, "m\251\7a\306\226\366-\v~\"\216\353\342~0\fht\315DK0\236.\\\201!A#\177\320"..., 32768) = 32768 read(5, "\7\324\207,\205\360\376\307\276\254\250\232\21G\323n\255\354\234\257P\322y\3502\37\246\21\334^42"..., 32768) = 32768 read(5, "e{*\225\223R\320\212EG:^\302\377\242\337\10\222J\16A\305\0\353\354\326P\336\357A|-"..., 32768) = 32768 read(5, "n\23XA4*R\352\234\257\364\355Y\204t9T\363\33\357\333\3674\246\221T\360\226\326G\354\374"..., 32768) = 32768 fadvise64(5, 131072, 131072, POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) = 0 read(5, "SX\331\251}\24\353\37\310#\307|h%\372\34\310\3070YX\250s\2269\242\236\371\302z\357_"..., 32768) = 32768 read(5, "\177\3500\236Y\245\376NIY\177\360p!\337L]\2726\206@\240\246pG\213\254N\274\226\303\357"..., 32768) = 32768 read(5, "\242$*\364\217U\264]\221Y\245\342r\t\253\25Hr\363\263\364\336\322\t\325\325\f\37z\324\201\351"..., 32768) = 32768 read(5, "\2305\242\366\370\203tM\226<\230\25\316(9\25x\2\376\212\346Q\223 \353\225\323\264jf|\216"..., 32768) = 32768 fadvise64(5, 262144, 131072, POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) = 0 ``` Page cache consumption per file can be checked with tools like [pcstat](https://github.com/tobert/pcstat).
