cp: by default, refuse to copy through a dangling destination symlink
* NEWS: Mention this change.
* doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Describe the new behavior.
* src/copy.c: No longer include "canonicalize.h".
(copy_reg): Upon failure to open a dangling destination symlink, don't
canonicalize the name, but rather fail (default) or, with POSIXLY_CORRECT,
repeat the open call without O_EXCL (potentially dangerous).
* src/copy.h (struct cp_options) [open_dangling_dest_symlink]:
New member. Reorder the others, grouping "bool" and "enum"
members together.
* tests/cp/thru-dangling: Test for changed and new behavior.
* src/cp.c (cp_option_init): Initialize new member.
* src/install.c (cp_option_init): Likewise.
* src/mv.c (cp_option_init): Likewise.
