bug#41944: cp: default to --reflink=auto, revisted

Hi,

The most recent discussion I found about this:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2016-09/msg00015.html

It's definitely currently never.
https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/blob/master/src/cp.c#L796

However for mv, it is used (which I understand it's a different thing,
the optimization for cp+rm makes even more sense than for cp alone).
https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/blob/master/src/mv.c#L113

Thanks,
