[Feature Request] Negative value for -p (range) #84

I like to use vmtouch similar to tail. At the moment I need to check the size of the file before being able to read the last bytes of the file. Instead a negative value for -p would be nice (or a separate tail flag).

Neat idea, I like it! Patches welcome :)
