So apparently O_ATOMIC has been a thing since 2017 or such, in XFS. Any
plans to support it in MariaDB as an alternative to fsync() and double
buffering?

I realize the feature is probably experimental, however it can be
programatically detected and I think something like MariaDB supporting
it would encourage further development.
