and copy_attr_by_name.  Also display all errors when --attributes-only

Refactor the SELinux error handling code a little and display all
SELinux errors when only copying attributes.
* src/copy.h (struct cp_options): Add a data_copy_required boolean
* src/cp.c (main): Default to copying data but don't if specified
* src/install.c: Default to copying data
* src/mv.c: Likewise
tests/cp/reflink-perm: Add a test to check that --attributes-only
does not copy data

acl manipulation

<id>urn:sha1:c420cfef77b9173a754806dc49deacabb436044f</id>
<content type='text'>
The 2010-03-26 commit, 4c38625e, "doc: fix info on cp --preserve..."
was not entirely correct as cp --preserve=all does produce some
xattr warnings.

* src/copy.h: Update and clarify the comments for reduce_diagnostics
and require_preserve_{xattr,context}.
* doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Update the -a and
--preserve=xattr,context options to say when and which
xattr warnings are output.
(mv invocation): Mention that some warnings are output
when preserving xattrs.
