io: Remove copy_file_range emulation [BZ #24744]

The kernel is evolving this interface (e.g., removal of the
restriction on cross-device copies), and keeping up with that
is difficult.  Applications which need the function should
run kernels which support the system call instead of relying on
the imperfect glibc emulation.

+	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/copy_file_range.c (copy_file_range): Do
+	not define and call copy_file_range_compat.
+	* io/Makefile (tests-static, tests-internal): Do not add
+	tst-copy_file_range-compat.
+	* io/copy_file_range-compat.c: Remove file.
+	* io/copy_file_range.c (copy_file_range): Define as stub.
+	* io/tst-copy_file_range-compat.c: Remove file.
+	* io/tst-copy_file_range.c (xdevfile): Remove variable.
+	(typical_sizes): Update comment.  Remove 16K sizes.
+	(maximum_offset, maximum_offset_errno, maximum_offset_hard_limit):
+	Remove variables.
+	(find_maximum_offset, pipe_as_source, pipe_as_destination)
+	(delayed_write_failure_beginning, delayed_write_failure_end)
+	(cross_device_failure, enospc_failure_1, enospc_failure)
+	(oappend_failure): Remove functions.
+	(tests): Adjust test case list.
+	(do_test): Remove file system search code.  Check for ENOSYS from
+	copy_file_range.  Do not free xdevfile.
+	* manual/llio.texi (Copying File Data): Document ENOSYS error from
+	copy_file_range.  Do not document the EXDEV error, which future
+	kernels may not report.  Update the wording to reflect that
+	further errors are possible.

 Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:
 
+* The copy_file_range function fails with ENOSYS if the kernel does not
