I'm not sure of your intended usage, but note that apr_ssize_t may not
be large enough for a file checked into Subversion. For that, we use
svn_filesize_t (guaranteed 63-bit length). And you could also use
SVN_INVALID_FILESIZE as your "copy all" discriminator. Though that
looks pretty ugly, I would suggset:

#define SVN_STREAM_COPYALL SVN_INVALID_FILESIZE

and tell people to use that define for clarity.
