cp,mv: add --update=none to always skip existing files
Add --update=none which is equivalent to the --no-clobber behavior
from before coreutils 9.2. I.e. existing files are unconditionally
skipped, and them not being replaced does not affect the exit status.
* src/copy.h [enum Update_type]: A new type to support parameters
to the --update command line option.
[enum Interactive]: Add I_ALWAYS_SKIP.
* src/copy.c: Treat I_ALWAYS_SKIP like I_ALWAYS_NO (-n),
except that we don't fail when skipping.
* src/system.h (emit_update_parameters_note): A new function
to output the description of the new --update parameters.
* src/cp.c (main): Parse --update arguments, ensuring that
-n takes precedence if specified.
(usage): Describe the new option. Also allude that
-u is related in the -n description.
* src/mv.c: Accept the new --update parameters and
update usage() accordingly.
* doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Describe the new --update
parameters. Also reference --update from the --no-clobber description.
(mv invocation): Likewise.
* tests/mv/update.sh: Test the new parameters.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
