// Get the appropriate flag to use for creating files
// We use fmap on Windows platforms for files less than
// 512kb.  This is a fairly low limit, but avoids making
// things slower in some cases.  Since most of what this
// library is used for is extracting tarballs of many
// relatively small files in npm packages and the like,
// it can be a big boost on Windows platforms.
// Only supported in Node v12.9.0 and above.
