Safe portable wrapper for block device opperations

Documentation (Releases)

Block Devs provides safe wrappers for the ioctl call for dealing with block devices (USB sticks, SSDs, hard drives etc).

It aims to provide a consitent interface across all platforms for things like getting the number of bytes a disk has.

It does this by a extention trait on the standard File struct.

```rust,ignore use block-devs::BlockExt; use std::fs::File;

let path = "/dev/sda2";
let file = File::open(path)?;
let bytes = file.get_block_device_size()?;
let gb = bytes >> 30;

println!("disk is {} blocks {}gb", bytes, gb);

```

Supported Platforms

It currently supports Linux, OS X, and Free BSD, pull requests for other platforms are welcome
