Use ioctl_ficlonerange(2) instead of copy_file_range(2) #126

Description

@AkihiroSuda

The cp --reflink command uses the FICLONERANGE ioctl() command, but not copy_file_range(); in fact, no utilities use copy_file_range(), though it should be the default.

And there is also ioctl_fideduperange(2. really confusing.. :(
