Update file creation example (2017-10-09 14:42:45 -0600)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Jens Axboe (7):
engines/filecreate: a few fixes engines/filecreate: don't use file hash engines/filecreate: set FIO_NOSTATS flag
filesetup: don't track file allocation for jobs == 1
time: add ntime_since_now() engine/filecreate: use clat and reads for stats Update file creation example

Josef Bacik (3):
add a filecreate engine
add FIO_FILENOHASH ioengine flag
add an filecreate example file to examples/

Vincent Fu (2):
stat: update description of clat accounting in stat.h
stat: update json+ output format for --lat_percentiles option
