I don't like the path we have taken starting with generic/456 (so partly
my own blame) that the test passes instead of "not run" for fs that
don't support the replayed fsx operations, because fsx skips them.

Because the sub-test in question really wants to test KEEP_SIZE,
IMO we should explicitly:

_require_xfs_io_command "falloc" "-k"
_require_xfs_io_command "fpunch"

And for generic/456, we should also explicitly:

_require_xfs_io_command "fpunch"
_require_xfs_io_command "fzero"
_require_xfs_io_command "fcollapse"
