[PATCH] ls: make possible to stop file capabilities checking

[Kamil Dudka]

Colorizing file with capabilities has some performance impact (rhbz #467508). 
It should be possible to stop checking for file capabilities by unsetting ca 
attribute of $LS_COLORS. One-line patch solving this issue is attached.

Simple test:
$ strace ls --color 2> tmp && grep -i cap tmp --color

$ eval `dircolors -b | sed s/ca=[^:]*:/ca=:/` # disable checking for file caps
$ strace ls --color 2> tmp && grep -i cap tmp --color
