Avoid misbehavior of a cross-device "mv" or "install".
Those programs must not dereference a destination symlink.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't treat a dangling destination symlink

O_EXCL can cause failure is when some other process has recreated
the file this code unlinked a few instructions before.
