open(O_CREAT) and creat() should replicate a manifest on close() if no data was written #84

Otherwise, we end up with a file that can't be accessed via an RG until the first write. The file can be made permanently inaccessible if the UG that creates it dies before writing.

Or, we don't replicate a manifest at all, and simply remember in subsequent not to try to go get one.
