df: always print the device name for bind mounted files
* src/df (show_point): Remove the optimization for comparing
the specified path with the device name, as this produces
inconsistent results in the presence of bind mounts. For bind
mounts, the device name is populated with the bind mount target.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
