Improvement: Avoid rescuing empty space

Hi!

Thanks for the great project, it saved many bytes :-)

Huge HDDs are often not completely used, and the unused space is often filled 
with zeros.
What about a config option to skip sectors filled with zeros (in the same way skipping bad sectors) to avoid wasting time rescuing empty space?

Merry Christmas, Robert
