/**
* Adds an image to a WIM file from an on-disk directory tree or NTFS volume.

- * The directory tree is read immediately for the purpose of constructing a
- * directory entry tree in-memory. Also, all files are read to calculate their
- * SHA1 message digests. However, because the directory tree may contain a very
- * large amount of data, the files themselves are not read into memory
- * permanently, and instead references to their paths saved. The files are then
- * read on-demand if wimlib_write() or wimlib_overwrite() is called.

- * There is currently a design problem with this function because it is hard to
