linux/copy_file_range: properly request a fallback copy on Linux <5.3

Description

linux/copy_file_range: properly request a fallback copy on Linux <5.3

Before Linux 5.3, the filesystem's copy_file_range handler had to signal
back to the kernel that we can't fulfill the request and it should
fallback to a content copy. This is done by returning -EOPNOTSUPP.

This commit converts the EXDEV return from zfs_clone_range to
EOPNOTSUPP, to force the kernel to fallback for all the valid reasons it
might be unable to clone. Without it the copy_file_range() syscall will
return EXDEV to userspace, breaking its semantics.

Add test for copy_file_range fallbacks. copy_file_range should always
fallback to a content copy whenever ZFS can't service the request with
cloning.
