Let debugfs do sparse copy when src is a sparse file, just like
"cp --sparse=auto"

This patch has been reviewed by the linux-ext4 mailing list, but isn't
merged atm.

+debugfs.c: do sparse copy when src is a sparse file
+
+Let debugfs do sparse copy when src is a sparse file, just like
+"cp --sparse=auto"
+
+* For the:
+  #define IO_BUFSIZE 64*1024
+  this is a suggested value from gnu coreutils:
+  http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=coreutils.git;a=blob;f=src/ioblksize.h;h=1ae93255e7d0ccf0855208c7ae5888209997bf16;hb=HEAD
+
+* Use malloc() to allocate memory for the buffer since put 64K (or
+  more) on the stack seems not a good idea.
