Was thinking it would be very handy to have a truncate() variant that deletes
pages from the head of a file. This could be leveraged to make logfiles easier
to maintain, as an example. Anyone else interested, think this would be nice
to have?
(Note - not the same as just punching holes in the beginning of the file - we
want the beginning of the file to advance as well, past the deleted pages.)
