I'm quite surprised by this, I simply re-used the logic that bin/cp also has.
However, it's possible that this is no longer used in cp due to copy_file_range?
To be honest I'm not sure whether mmap() even improves performance
compared to read/write since the all the MMU setup might be quite
expensive and the data might not even be available so we end up
copying anyway. Maybe we should change install to use read/write
unconditionally? It might also make sense to factor out the
copy_file_range+read/write fallback logic in bin/cp to a library that
can be used in usr.bin/install.
