cp -a: diagnose failure when preserving xattr/context required
* src/copy.c (copy_attr_by_fs): Always print diagnostics when preserving xattrs is required. (copy_attr_by_name): Likewise. (copy_reg): Always print diagnostics when preserving SELinux context is required. (copy_internal): Likewise. Also, do not ignore ENOTSUP and ENODATA errors when preserving SELinux context is required. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

** Bug fixes
+ cp now diagnoses failure to preserve selinux/xattr attributes when
+ --preserve=context,xattr is specified in combination with -a.
+ Also, cp no longer suppresses attribute-preservation diagnostics
+ when preserving SELinux context was explicitly requested.
+
sort -m no longer segfaults when its output file is also an input file.
E.g., with this, touch 1; sort -m -o 1 1, sort would segfault.
[introduced in coreutils-7.2]
