+ * nxt_job_file_read() allows to open a file, to get its type, size, and
+ * modification time, to read or map file content to memory, and to close
+ * the file. It can be done as one operation for small file or as several
+ * operations for large file. On each operation completion ready_handler
+ * or error_handler completion handlers are called. Since they are job
+ * operations, they can be run by a thread pool.
+ *
+ * If a file is not opened then it is opened and its type, size, and
+ * modification time are got. Then file content starting from given offset
+ * is read or mapped in memory if there is a buffer supplied. The offset
+ * field is correspondingly updated.
+ *
+ * If there is no buffer but the read_ahead flag is set then the first
+ * byte is read to initiate read ahead operation.
+ *
+ * If the close flag is set then file descriptor is closed when the file
+ * is completely read.
+ *
+ * The complete flag is set by nxt_job_file_read() when the file is
+ * completely read.
+ *
+ * The test_before_open flag allows to save syscalls in some case, for
+ * example, not to open and then not to close a directory. It calls
+ * nxt_file_info() to get file type, size, and modification time before
+ * opening the file. A custom read_required() callback combined with this
+ * flag can also omit opening and reading on some conditions. However,
+ * if the callback forces opening then additional nxt_file_info() is
+ * called after opening. The default read_required() callback always
+ * forces opening and reading.
