mv: replace empty directories in cross file system move
src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use rmdir() rather than unlink()
when the source is a directory, so that empty directories
are replaced in the destination as per POSIX.
* tests/mv/part-rename.sh: Augment with various combinations.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/14763
