bug#11100: Racy code in copy.c

[Philipp Thomas]

I'd like to pass on observations from my collegue Neil Brown:

in src/copy.c, copy_reg() is passed "bool *new_dst".

This is 'false' if the file already exists, in which case it attempts to
open the file with O_WRONLY | O_TRUNC | O_BINARY.
If it is 'true', only then does it use O_CREAT (and others).

Somewhere up the call chain - I'm not sure where - new_dst is set if 'stat'
on the file succeeds.  The above mentioned code assumes that the file still
exists.  This is racy - particularly for NFS where deletions from other
clients can take a while to appear.
