@brief Copy an LMDB environment to the specified file descriptor.

This function may be used to make a backup of an existing environment.

See long-lived transactions under @ref caveats_sec. @param[in] env An environment handle returned by #mdb_env_create(). It must have already been opened successfully. @param[in] fd The filedescriptor to write the copy to. It must have already been opened for Write access. @return A non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
