+ *
+ * If we are not adding any streams or metadata resources, the lookup table is
+ * unchanged--- so we only need to overwrite the XML data, integrity table, and
+ * header.  This operation is potentially unsafe if the program is abruptly
+ * terminated while the XML data or integrity table are being overwritten, but
+ * before the new header has been written.  To partially alleviate this problem,
+ * a special flag (WIMLIB_WRITE_FLAG_CHECKPOINT_AFTER_XML) is passed to
+ * finish_write() to cause a temporary WIM header to be written after the XML

+ * the program is terminated while the integrity table is being calculated (but
+ * no guarantees, due to write re-ordering...).
+ *
+ * If we are adding new streams or images (metadata resources), the lookup table
+ * needs to be changed, and those streams need to be written.  In this case, we
+ * try to perform a safe update of the WIM file by writing the streams *after*
+ * the end of the previous WIM, then writing the new lookup table, XML data, and
+ * (optionally) integrity table following the new streams.  This will produce a
+ * layout like the following:
+ *
+ *                   Header (212 bytes)
+ *                   (OLD) Streams and metadata resources (variable size)
+ *                   (OLD) Lookup table (variable size)
+ *                   (OLD) XML data (variable size)
+ *                   (OLD) Integrity table (optional) (variable size)
+ *                   (NEW) Streams and metadata resources (variable size)
+ *                   (NEW) Lookup table (variable size)
+ *                   (NEW) XML data (variable size)
+ *                   (NEW) Integrity table (optional) (variable size)
+ *
+ * At all points, the WIM is valid as nothing points to the new data yet.  Then,
+ * the header is overwritten to point to the new lookup table, XML data, and
+ * integrity table, to produce the following layout:
+ *
+ *                   Header (212 bytes)
+ *                   Streams and metadata resources (variable size)
+ *                   Nothing (variable size)

+ *                   Lookup table (variable size)
+ *                   XML data (variable size)
+ *                   Integrity table (optional) (variable size)
+ *
