test: fat: add test of non-contiguous file reads
In my patch series to replace fs/fat with "ff.c", I enhanced ff.c to
optimize file reading, so that reads of contiguous clusters are submitted
to the IO device as a single read. This test attempts to torture-test
edge-cases of that enhancement.
BTW, the only way I found to validate that this script actually does
create non-contiguous files was to manually inspect the FAT bitmap in a
hex dump of the FAT image. hdparm --fibmap doesn't work on loop-mounted
filesystems. filefrag -v -e seems to lie about files being contiguous
when they aren't.
