libsparse: merge adjacent blocks of the same type
When a block is added that is adjacent to another block and of the same
type, merge it. This will be useful for converting regular images to
sparse images, allowing the reader to add a single block at a time and
letting libsparse optimize into larger blocks as it goes.
Does not support merge two blocks that are backed by a data pointer,
only blocks that are backed by a file for now.
