Fix for hexdump -s not being able to skip files residing in pseudo-filesystems that advertise a zero size value. Historically, many pseudofs-based filesystems (e.g., procfs) report a va_size of 0 for numerous files classified as regular files. Typically, the contents of these files are generated on demand from kernel data as sbuf(9) strings at the time they are read. Accurately reporting the size of these files is challenging, as it often involves generating their contents. These pseudofs implementations frequently report the size as 0. This is a historical behavior and also aligns with Linux behavior. To maintain compatibility, we have chosen to preserve the existing behavior and address it in the userland application, rather than modifying it in the kernel (by updating the correct value for va_size).
