os: employ sendfile(2) for file-to-file copying on Linux when needed
Go utilizes copy_file_range(2) for file-to-file copying only on kernel 5.3+,
but even on 5.3+ this system call can still go wrong for some reason (check
out the comment inside poll.CopyFileRange).
Before Linux 2.6.33, out_fd must refer to a socket, but since Linux 2.6.33
it can be any file. Thus, we can employ sendfile(2) for copy between files
when copy_file_range(2) fails to handle the copy, that way we can still
benefit from the zero-copy technique on kernel <5.3 and wherever
copy_file_range(2) is available but broken.
