copy: make copy_tree_at_full()'s 'to' parameter optional

Sometimes it's quite useful to pin a source dir via an fd, as well as a
target dir the same way, and then ask copy_tree_at_full() to copy the
contents from one to the other. Make this possible, by allowing 'to' be
NULL. (Previously, it had to be non-NULL, i.e. the function would always
create a new dir, no matter what.)

Note that we only support that for dir inodes.
