copy: fix a segfault in SELinux context copying code
* src/selinux.c (restorecon_private): On ArchLinux the
`fakeroot cp -a file1 file2` command segfaulted due
to getfscreatecon() returning a NULL context.
So map this to the sometimes ignored ENODATA error,
rather than crashing.
* tests/cp/no-ctx.sh: Add a new test case.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/16335
