Use more-consistent rules among cp, ln, and mv when dealing with
last operands that are (or look like) directories.
* src/cp.c (target_directory_operand): New, nearly-common function,
It reports an error if the destination appears to be a directory
(e.g., because it has a trailing slash) but is not.
* src/cp.c (do_copy): Use it.
* src/cp.c (do_copy): Don't assume argc is positive.
Don't bother to lstat dest, since copy() will do that for us.
Use "const" to avoid the need for cast.
* src/cp.c (do_copy): Don't output a usage message because of file
problems (e.g., an operand is not a directory). Use it only for
syntax. Standardize on "target %s is not a directory" for the
diagnostic.
* src/cp.c (do_copy): Remove test for trailing slash, since
target_directory_operand now does this.
* src/cp.c (main): Reject multiple target directories.
Check whether a specified target is a directory when parsing the
options, using stat. This gives more-accurate diagnostics.
