Add a regression test for the bug where extending a file left the tail of
the old partial EOF page exposing stale mmap-dirtied data instead of zeros.
The test is a self-contained raw /dev/fuse server (no libfuse dependency)
that runs without writeback_cache and returns FOPEN_KEEP_CACHE, the
configuration in which the bug is visible. Its backing data is always zero
in the hole, so any non-zero byte a read sees is stale page-cache data.
All offsets are relative to the runtime page size. Four cases:
- write_extend: pollute the post-EOF tail, extend past it by writing into
a later page, and verify the tail reads back as zero;
- ftruncate_extend: same, but extend via ftruncate();
- fallocate_extend: same, but extend via fallocate() at the old EOF;
- extend_into_eof_page_preserves_data: an extending write landing inside
the old EOF page must not be clobbered by the zeroing.
Each case fails without the fix and passes with it.
