       The  explain_fread_or_die  function  is used to call the fread(3) system call.  On failure an explanation
       will be printed to stderr, obtained from explain_fread(3), and then the  process  terminates  by  calling
       exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

       This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
              size_t how_many = explain_fread_or_die(ptr, size, nmemb, fp);

       ptr     The ptr, exactly as to be passed to the fread(3) system call.

       size    The size, exactly as to be passed to the fread(3) system call.

       nmemb   The nmemb, exactly as to be passed to the fread(3) system call.

       fp      The fp, exactly as to be passed to the fread(3) system call.

       Returns:
               This  function only returns on success, the number read or 0 on end‐of‐input.  On failure, prints
               an explanation and exits.
