Could we just write the blocks directly into the output array, and
then transpose them directly in place if start_blkno > 0? See
attached. I may be missing something, but the only downside I can
think of is that the output array is still clobbered even if we decide
to return BACK_UP_FILE_FULLY because of the 90% rule, but that just
requires a warning in the comment at the top.
