install,mkdir: fix handling of -DZ and -pZ, respectively
... in the case where two or more directories nested in each other are created and each of them defaults to a different SELinux context. * src/install.c (make_ancestor): When calling defaultcon(), give it the same path that is given to mkdir(). The other path is not always valid wrt. current working directory. * src/mkdir.c (make_ancestor): Likewise. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Reported at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1398913

[bug introduced in coreutils-8.24]
+ install -DZ and mkdir -pZ now set default SELinux context correctly even if

+ defaults to a different SELinux context.

ls --time-style no longer mishandles '%%b' in formats.
