cp: clone on macOS

* configure.ac: Check for fclonefileat.
* src/copy.c [HAVE_FCLONEFILEAT && !USE_XATTR]:
Include <sys/clonefile.h>.
(copy_reg): If possible, use fclonefileat to clone.

 ** Improvements
 
+  On macOS, cp creates a copy-on-write clone if source and destination
+  are regular files on the same APFS file system, the destination does
+  not already exist, and cp is preserving mode and timestamps (e.g.,
+  'cp -p', 'cp -a').
+
   sort --debug now diagnoses issues with --field-separator characters
   that conflict with characters possibly used in numbers.
