Mongoose allows to override file i/o operations in order to support different
storages, like programmable flash, no-filesystem devices etc.
In order to accomplish this, Mongoose provides a `struct mg_fs` API to
specify a custom filesystem. In addition to this, Mongoose provides two
built-in APIs - a standard POSIX API, and a "packed FS" API. A packed FS
specify a custom filesystem. In addition to this, Mongoose provides several
built-in APIs - a standard POSIX, FatFS, and a "packed FS" API. A packed FS
allows to embed a filesystem into the application or firmware binary,
described below.

### Packed filesystem
Mongoose
has a filesystem abstraction layer. By default, a POSIX filesystem,
a FatFS filesystem, and a "packed" filesystem are implemented.
A packed filesystem allow to "pack" filesystem into single file, for example,
into executable or flashable image - and files will be hardcoded into the
binary, making it possible to e.g. serve files on devices with no
filesystem, or be resilient to filesystem issues:
A packed filesystem allow to "pack" filesystem into a C file which then can
be compiled into the binary, forming a read-only file system.
This makes it possible to serve files on devices with no
filesystem. Even on devices with a filesystem, packing some files like Web UI
can be beneficial to be resilient to filesystem errors.
