In move mode, always first try to rename. Before, upon failure to
rename a directory, this code would never attempt to rename any other file in that directory, but would thenceforth always copy. On some systems (NetApp version ??), renaming a directory may fail with EXDEV, yet renaming files within that directory to a newly- created destination directory succeeds. (copy_internal): Remove local, move_mode; use x->move_mode instead. Based on a patch from Tom Haynes.
