After looking at this for some time, I think the problem is rarely if
ever seen. The only function which has the NOCOPY sense inverted is
code_convert_string, and it only does that when the CODING_SYSTEM
argument is nil, which should almost never happen. So I think it's OK
to change code_convert_string on master to use NOCOPY in its correct
sense.
