doc: install --compare: clarify mode of operation

* doc/coreutils.texi (install invocation): For the --compare option,
clarify that the ownership or permissions of the source files don't
matter.  Also don't imply --owner or --group need to be specified
for --compare to be effective.
* src/install.c (usage): Add more detail on what's being compared.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/50889
