If we can't mmap a file and instead have to fread(), if the data is
small enough that we can reasonably accomodate it in a memory buffer,
then just read it once.
It seems rather unlikely that very large files would be used with
TIMES anyway.
Also note: the previous comment about nasm_file_size[_by_path]() being
invoked twice was spurious; it does not actually happen.

A number of fairly common operations are invoked way too many times,
especially when using incbin. Drastically reduce the number of system
calls that need to be executed, and use memory mapping to reduce
unnecessary double buffering.
We could improve this further by leaving files open once used;
however, that might run into file count problems on some systems.
Still unclear is why we seem to invoke nasm_file_size() twice per pass
for incbin.
