Deduplicate the underlying storage of files without making visible changes to the files themselves.
If a deduplicated file is later written, the affected blocks will first be copied (copy on write, or COW).
Currently only supported by the filesystems btrfs and XFS on Linux, and APFS on macOS.
Will not fall back to another method on failure.
