SeqFOpen()

FILE * KIPLATFORM::IO::SeqFOpen	(	const wxString &	aPath,
		const wxString &	mode
	)

Opens the file like fopen but sets flags (if available) for sequential read hinting.

Only use this variant of fopen if the file is truely going to be read sequentially only otherwise you may encounter performance penalities.

Windows in particular is a little ulgy to set the sequential scan flag compared to say linux and it's posix_fadvise
