ls: use '.' (not +) as SELinux-only alt. access flag in ls -l output
* src/ls.c (gobble_file) [long_format]: Map SELinux-only to '.',
any other nonempty combination of MAC and ACL to '+', and all else
to the usual ' '. Suggested by Michael Stone.
* tests/misc/selinux: Adapt: expect '.', not '+'.
* doc/coreutils.texi (What information is listed): Document this.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention it.
