Missing O_CLOEXEC.

It'd maximize flexibility for the caller to pass a file descriptor, and not a file name.

Tangentially related to this, I think we should consider doing the same optimization here:
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/blob/36693f064c63dad550ebcfed33bf9b95806ddef9/src/libotutil/ot-fs-utils.c#L171

Or alternatively, just have the caller provide a (mmap'd or copied-via-read()) buffer?

Though clearly the most flexible is a streaming API.  But eh, I am not really concerned about that level of performance.
