LIF, a.k.a. Logical Interchange Format, is a series of formats used by
Hewlett-Packard across their entire range of computers, from calculators to
modern servers. It also defines a simple non-hierarchical filesystem which is
bizarrely _still_ supported by HP-UX systems.

Floppy-disk wise, they're yet more variations of the standard IBM floppy
encoding scheme.

## Options

  - Format variants:
      - `264`: 264kB 3.5" 66-track SSDD; HP9121 format
      - `608`: 608kB 3.5" 76-track DSDD; HP9122 format
      - `616`: 616kB 3.5" 77-track DSDD
      - `770`: 770kB 3.5" 77-track DSDD
