gzip: fix bug with -l output to pipes
Problem reported by Christian Franke via Eric Blake in: http://bugs.gnu.org/23314 * NEWS: Mention this. * gzip.c (main): Do not close stdout twice when given -l. Instead, -l now just fflushes stdout, so that fdatasync can synchronize it if --synchronize is also specified. * tests/list: New test case. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
