df: only suppress remote mounts of separate exports with --total
* src/df.c (filter_mount_list): Separate remote locations are generally explicitly mounted, so list each even if they share the same remote device and thus storage. However with --total keep the suppression to give a more accurate value for the total storage available. (usage): Expand on the new implications of --total and move it in the options list according to alphabetic order. doc/coreutils.texi (df invocation): Mention that --total impacts on deduplication of remote file systems and also move location according to alphabetic order. * tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Add remote test cases. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

** Changes in behavior
+ df no longer suppresses separate exports of the same remote device, as
+ these are generally explicitly mounted. The --total option does still
+ suppress duplicate remote file systems.
+ [suppression was introduced in coreutils-8.21]
+
mv no longer supports moving a file to a hardlink, instead issuing an error.
The implementation was susceptible to races in the presence of multiple mv
instances, which could result in both hardlinks being deleted. Also on case
