#define DELETE_CONTINGENT   (-1)

A FileInfo type has a file pointer and metadata about a file.

FileInfo A file info structure wraps around a file pointer in order to contain additional information/metadata about the file that is pertinent to the file manager.

The free pages (freePages) within a file must be tracked, and this is implemented using a basic STL set. The set ensures that no duplicate pages are included, and that the pages are sorted, faciliating the obtaining of consecutive free pages by a constant time pop operation, which may reduce the cost of DBMS disk accesses.

Helper functions are provided: size(), available(), and used().
