* ```
*
* To use the callback and sync APIs:

*
* Similarly to `fs.readFile` \- `fs.writeFile` is a convenience method that
* performs multiple `write` calls internally to write the buffer passed to it.
* For performance sensitive code consider using {@link createWriteStream}.
*
* It is possible to use an `AbortSignal` to cancel an `fs.writeFile()`.
* Cancelation is "best effort", and some amount of data is likely still
* to be written.
*
* ```js
* import { writeFile } from 'fs';
* import { Buffer } from 'buffer';
*
* const controller = new AbortController();
* const { signal } = controller;
* const data = new Uint8Array(Buffer.from('Hello Node.js'));
* writeFile('message.txt', data, { signal }, (err) => {
* // When a request is aborted - the callback is called with an AbortError
* });
* // When the request should be aborted
* controller.abort();
* ```
*
* Aborting an ongoing request does not abort individual operating
* system requests but rather the internal buffering `fs.writeFile` performs.

*
* The "not recommended" examples above check for accessibility and then use the

* and handle the error, if any.
*
* In general, check for the accessibility of a file only if the file will not be
* used directly, for example when its accessibility is a signal from another
* process.
*
* On Windows, access-control policies (ACLs) on a directory may limit access to
* a file or directory. The `fs.access()` function, however, does not check the
* ACL and therefore may report that a path is accessible even if the ACL restricts
* the user from reading or writing to it.

* the file instead of the entire file. Both `start` and `end` are inclusive and
* start counting at 0, allowed values are in the
* \[0, [`Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Number/MAX_SAFE_INTEGER)\] range. If `fd` is specified and `start` is
* omitted or `undefined`, `fs.createReadStream()` reads sequentially from the
* current file position. The `encoding` can be any one of those accepted by `Buffer`.
*
* If `fd` is specified, `ReadStream` will ignore the `path` argument and will use
* the specified file descriptor. This means that no `'open'` event will be
* emitted. `fd` should be blocking; non-blocking `fd`s should be passed to `net.Socket`.
*
* If `fd` points to a character device that only supports blocking reads
* (such as keyboard or sound card), read operations do not finish until data is
* available. This can prevent the process from exiting and the stream from
* closing naturally.
*
* By default, the stream will emit a `'close'` event after it has been
* destroyed. Set the `emitClose` option to `false` to change this behavior.
*
* By providing the `fs` option, it is possible to override the corresponding `fs`implementations for `open`, `read`, and `close`. When providing the `fs` option,
* an override for `read` is required. If no `fd` is provided, an override for`open` is also required. If `autoClose` is `true`, an override for `close` is
* also required.
*
* ```js
* import { createReadStream } from 'fs';
*
* // Create a stream from some character device.
* const stream = createReadStream('/dev/input/event0');
* setTimeout(() => {
* stream.close(); // This may not close the stream.
* // Artificially marking end-of-stream, as if the underlying resource had
* // indicated end-of-file by itself, allows the stream to close.
* // This does not cancel pending read operations, and if there is such an
* // operation, the process may still not be able to exit successfully
* // until it finishes.
* stream.push(null);
* stream.read(0);
* }, 100);
* ```
*
* If `autoClose` is false, then the file descriptor won't be closed, even if
* there's an error. It is the application's responsibility to close it and make
* sure there's no file descriptor leak. If `autoClose` is set to true (default
* behavior), on `'error'` or `'end'` the file descriptor will be closed
* automatically.
*
* `mode` sets the file mode (permission and sticky bits), but only if the
* file was created.
*

*
* ```js
* import { createReadStream } from 'fs';
