wc: fix wrong byte counts when using --files-from0
* src/wc.c (main): Reset fstatus[0].failed between files when reusing
the fstatus[0] entry in --files-from0 mode. This ensures a stat() is
done for each file, avoiding incorrect counts and redundant reading.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* tests/misc/wc-files0.sh: Add a test case.
