[PATCH for-5.0 v2 2/3] iotests: Add poke_file_[bl]e functions

[Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com>]

Similarly to peek_file_[bl]e, we may want to write binary integers into
a file.  Currently, this often means messing around with poke_file and
raw binary strings.  I hope these functions make it a bit more
comfortable.
