I'm not too familiar with iocb/how async IOs should work, but a logic
question just to make sure that has been thought out:
We prefer zc here to async, even if zc can be slow?
Ideally at some point zc and async aren't exclusive so we'll have async
zc and async normal, but for now I'd say async comes before zc - yes
there will be an extra copy in memory, but it will be done
asynchronously.
Was it intentional to prefer zc here?

(Just a note to myself (or anyone who wants to do this) that a couple of
places only look at err if size written is 0... They should check if err
has been set)
