/// Clones a directory with reflink
/// https://docs.rs/reflink/*/reflink/index.html
/// Some file systems implement COW (copy on write) functionality in order to speed up file copies. On a high level, the new file does not actually get copied, but shares the same on-disk data with the source file. As soon as one of the files is modified, the actual copying is done by the underlying OS.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// use std::fs;
/// use std::io::prelude::*;
///
/// fn main() {
///     clonedir_lib::clonedir("src", "tmp/src").expect("error downloading");
///     let contents = fs::read_to_string("tmp/src/lib.rs").expect("error reading file");
///     assert!(contents.starts_with("extern"));
/// }
/// ```
