There's really no need to make cratetorrent Linux-only. The only places that rely on platform specific APIs are:

• https://github.com/mandreyel/cratetorrent/blob/master/cratetorrent/src/disk/io/file.rs#L83
• https://github.com/mandreyel/cratetorrent/blob/master/cratetorrent/src/disk/io/file.rs#L141
• and uses of /tmp in tests an examples.

The real issue is the first two. The solution is very simple: feature gate those methods of TorrentFile behind a Linux flag, and fallback to coalescing buffers and issuing a single write call for other platforms.

[update]: It may actually be better to create a fallback of the Piece::write method instead of the lower level TorrentFile::write method.

This is because the current piece write method allocates a temporary buffer of iovecs, which is only needed for the pwritev syscall. However, if we're coalescing buffers and issuing a single write, we can skip the iovecs allocation step and save an allocation and other additional logic. A little more work for better performance.
