Construct a basic_random_access_file on an existing native file.

template<
    typename ExecutionContext>
basic_random_access_file(
    ExecutionContext & context,
    const native_handle_type & native_file,
    typename constraint< is_convertible< ExecutionContext &, execution_context & >::value, defaulted_constraint >::type  = defaulted_constraint());

This constructor initialises a random-access file object to hold an existing native file.
